London to Edinburgh (in aid of Leukaemia Research) · 30 January 2009

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

UPDATE: Luke has now, we hope, got over his glandular fever. The ride has been rescheduled so we will now be departing London (REGENTS PARK) on Sunday 6th September, arriving into Edinburgh (Princes Street Gardens) on Monday 14th September.

Hi,

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page! We are cycling from London to Edinburgh in around 9 days, covering just under 500 miles. We are about to begin training for what is a big challenge for us - although we already cycle fairly regularly, this will be literally taking it up several gears! We've been training as hard as we can over the last 4 months, so hopefully we can achieve our daily target of roughly 50 miles a day. We're setting up a blog so that you can hopefully track our progress over the ride if you wish! Details tbc. In light of recent events, we are now also donating some money to St. Nicholas Hospice (a local chairty in Suffolk). All donations made on this page (and some previously made in person) are to Leukaemia Research, however, if you wish to donate to St. Nicholas Hospice please contact Luke by sending an email to luke.crown@gmail.com .

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Leukaemia Research gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

We really appreciate your generosity!

Luke & Alex
