Our personal message:

Andy & Paula Cycle to Paris

People probably won't be surprised that Paula is undertaking another 'challenge'. Her partner on this particular jaunt maybe more surprising. Amazingly, this was Andy's idea, albeit he may not have been completely sober. The fact he has not been seen 'en bicyclette' since he fell off his Raleigh Chopper in 1975 has now dawned on him.

The concept is relatively simple - cycle from London to Paris in three days. Training will begin at Easter. Paula is searching for appropriate outfit/shoe combinations that match her bike, and Andy has a shiny new helmet. So keep you eyes peeled in and around the London area, as we may wobble past.

We're raising money for a local childrens hospice who do great work providing care and support for children and their families. Obviously we'd love to raise as much as possible and anything that people contribute will be greatly appreciated. So, thank you for visiting our fundraising page - Please do what you can.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us; Richard House Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Note: The position of Andy's 'buttock massager' is open for anyone with spare time, soft hands, and a strong stomach. This will exempt you from sponsorship, as you will be doing more than enough.

Many thanks
