A life long dream to ride a Grand Tour comes true on one of the toughest routes - the 2011 Giro d'Italia. During June 2011 Peta is going to ride the 3496km route of the Giro d'Italia as part of the Gran Corsa d'Italia in aid of Prostrate Cancer.

Aiming to clock up just over 4000km in a month, 4016km to be precise, Peta will also take part in the 520km London2Paris ride in aid of UK Youth.

So my goal is raise £4016 for charity. That's only a pound a kilometre, not much at the end of the day, when you consider the life changing difference both charities make.
