<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Recently I was looking at how much effort I put into things and coming to a few conclusions. Firstly that I spend a lot of time indulging in sport. Secondly that I'm lucky to be able to indulge. And thirdly, that I haven't raised money for quite some time.</p> <p>Recently a friend of ours who copes with lives with cancer engaged in a marathon push to organise a ride around Britain with other cancer sufferers and survivors, linking each of the capital cities. Separately, my cousin Emily was diagnosed with a very aggressive form of cancer. She is in her early 30s and I was deeply saddened to find out.</p> <p>So rather than waste my effort on a Saturday jolly, on the 5th of May I'll be attempting to ride up 'the tumble' 15 times. This adds up to 6870 meters &ndash; more than (and just in case it&rsquo;s wrong; I&rsquo;m quoting this)<em><strong> &ldquo;Alpe d&rsquo;Huez 6 times&rdquo;</strong></em>.</p> <p>The event details are here http://tumbleup4life.wordpress.com/</p> <p>Thanks for dropping by. Hope you can spare a bob or two.</p> <p>Many thanks,</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Simon</p>
