Story

Updated on Jun 8th 2012 at 4:09 PM from the JustGiving API

We did it! Huge thanks to everyone who sponsored me. If you haven't, it's not too late. Massive thanks to my 9 co-riders and 4 support crew, it was a team effort from start to finish.

<p>Hi, thanks for deciding to find out about my challenge.</p> <p>Until I moved to Bristol at the start of the year, I was a regular at the Free Press in Cambridge. We lost a couple of close friends to cancer and decided it would be fitting to remember them by raising money for Cancer Research.&nbsp;</p> <p>This mad scheme is to cycle from Cambridge to Paris over the course of five days in June. I know I can cycle 100 miles in a week, but can I manage over 300 miles in 5 days?</p> <p>So please dig deep and help me reach my target of &pound;1,000 towards our team target of &pound;10,000.</p> <p><em>Please note that as a team we are meeting all our expenses out of our own pockets, so <strong>all</strong> monies raised will go to Cancer Research UK.</em></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>
