Raising money for

Cyclists Fighting Cancer

Charity Registration No. 1112902

Cyclists Fighting Cancer awards shiny new bikes, tandems and specially adapted trikes to children and young people who have been affected by cancer throughout the UK and Northern Ireland. We encourage cycling as the best form of exercise based rehabilitation for those children undergoing and recovering from cancer treatments. To encourage them further we also give bikes to their siblings and in many cases their parents in order that they can take part in an activity as a family once again after what can be years of hospitalisation and disruption. Every penny raised goes into achieving these objectives. www.cyclistsfightingcancer.org.uk

My story

So I've been talking about doing this coast to coast (Workington to Newcastle 140 miles) thing for about 4 years now! But I've never had anyone who would brave it with me......... how times change! Carl has agreed to push me up the hills and chase me down them!

After mountain biking at Dalby Carl discovered that I don't do uphills so well! And as there are no cable cars in the Lake District I'm thinking up strategies to cope ; 1) get off and push 2) devise a little motor; any other suggestions would be considered!!

We start off at Workington, and cycle 50 miles in day one; we're staying in a castle on the first night (Greystoke) and a bunkhouse on the second ( Nenthead)..... what more could a girl want..... so looking forward to this and training really hard!! Thanks for taking the time to look. Bev

We decided to go for one of the lesser- known charities. Please see info. below our photograph.

Thanks for your support, its really appreciated Beverley and Carl
