Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. On the 6th September I am going to attempt to cycle from Land&rsquo;s End to John O&rsquo;Groats solo.&nbsp; This ride will take me through Cornwall, over Dartmoor and north along the Welsh border, skirting the Lake District into Scotland, to the North coast then to John O&rsquo;Groats. By the end I would have spent around 80 hours on a bike and the route is around 1000 miles long (assuming I don't get lost!). I will be attempting to do it in 10 days as off to Uni on the 24th Sept! Over the 1000 miles the total height I will climb will be over the&nbsp; height of Mt Everest x 2 and Kilimanjaro combined at around 22 000 meters.</p> <p>I am raising money for 2 charities. Action Medical research and this one.&nbsp; This charity has been chosen as a team mate of mine at Hertford Rugby club was seriously injured and this charity does great work helping people injured through rugby.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
