We're dedicated to beating blood cancer. We fund research and support those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. The day we beat blood cancer is now in sight and our researchers are determined to finish the job.

Story

Hello friends....

Firstly thankyou so much for taking the time to visit our page! 

On 10th August, we will make an attempt at "the big ride" - 1000 miles, unsupported, John O'Groats to Lands End. 

Last year one of Steve's close family members was diagnosed with Lymphoma, which is a cancer of the blood. While the battle goes on for her and the outlook is positive, Steve and Adrian have decided enough is enough and it's time to take the fight directly to this evil disease! 

Unfortunately neither of us possess a natural ability in science or medicine so instead we've decided to do the one thing we are both excellent at...volunteering ourselves for a ridiculous challenge. While our pain and suffering from this challenge won't be a fraction of what it's like to battle cancer, we hope that via our ordeal we can raise money and awareness for http://leukaemialymphomaresearch.org.uk

We are aiming to cycle the c1000miles from John O'Groats to Lands End in just 13 days, totally unsupported. No support car carrying our equipment, no marshalled route, just us, our bikes and a map.  

We hope you do feel the need to give generously, but genuinely are humbled and appreciative of every donation, however much or little you can afford (every penny really does count). Hopefully then together we can rid the world of this horrible nasty disease!

If you need any more motivation to join us in the fight, please take a minute to watch the below video (Adrian is the one in the pink gorilla suit - he didn't even know there was a race on!):

We'll be updating our progress online for those who wish to follow us or send (hopefully) encouraging messages of support. We will send the link to everyone who donates nearer the time. Also if you fancy cycling a leg with us, get in touch.

Thank you!!

Steve & Adrian
