Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Well - I did it, but only just, the London to Paris Cycle ride was by far one of the toughest challenges I have ever faced. 300 miles across rolling and sometimes very hilly country-side at a fast pace of around 18 mph. I was under trained and by no means fit enough but I did it to improve my health and more importantly raise money for the charity Debra. There were some wonderful people (semi- professionals) who encouraged me in the final miles to keep going despite the immense pain I was experiencing, there were laughs, (particularly when I had a problem with my bike, stopped to fix it, lost the group and then took the wrong turn and went 15 miles off course and had to hitch hike a lift in a truck to the ferry! - that was just day one) and some bad moments created by the pain, the weather and a very dodgy stomach - but when I saw the Eifel tower and the crowds cheering us in to Paris it all seemed worth it.

It is not to late too donate. I know there are endless sponsorship requests at this time of the year and times are hard but please give what you can to support this wonderful charity.
