My mother, Brenda has suffered from Rheumatoid Arthritis for 24 years so i have witnessed what a horrible, painful and debilitating disease it is, it breaks my heart to see her in pain and if i had the chance to swap with her i would do it in an instant, as you know there is no cure yet but hopefully with your help that will one day change.

I have decided to do something to help her and hundreds and thousands like her, by cycling from the Northernmost football league club in Britain - Elgin City F.C to the Southernmost football league club in Britain - Plymouth Argyle F.C 787 miles in 12 days to help raise funds to hopefully find a cure for Rheumatoid Arthritis.

I am also raising money for Alzheimers Research Trust. www.justgiving.com/andrewmcmahon2

Any donation no matter how big or small is gratefully received.
