Our friend and colleague Steve Jackson was involved in a horrific motorcycle accident at work where the vehicle behind ran him over and crushed him underneath.  Thanks to all the emergency services he was stabalised, released and airlifted to hospital.  We can't raise money for them all.  The difference is the air ambulance relies on donations to keep running.

You will  hopefully never need this service but if you do I am sure you will value it as much as Steve does.

As part of Steve's rehabilitation we have all decided to support him.  I tell you this is no mean feat for some of us novices to the cycling world, but with your help we could also support a great cause.

There are 11 of us and we hope to support 2 charities.  We have all supported 'Help for heroes' buy buying cycling shirts and we are now asking you, our friends and colleagues to support this great cause.

Every little helps so if all you can afford is a pound thats fine with us.

We thank you all in advance.
