My story

 
Hello everyone,

I did it. I did it I did it!!!!!!

Three days of riding in great weather (Cool and mainly(!) dry) in some of the best contryside you could imagine. All the training paid off which just made the trip even more enjoyable.

A big thank you to everyone who has made a donation. I believe the total income was approximately £108K on the Saturday we finished but is still rising as the news of our success gets out. If you have not yet donated then please do. My page will be open for another few weeks.

Finally, please take a few minutes to look at  http://www.bigissue.com/events.php?eventid=2  or click on the link at the top right of this page and you will see all about the trip and what lies behind it  and maybe if you like you can even sign up  for the ride next year!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. This way  the Big Issue Foundation gets your money faster and remember  if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid from the UK Government is added , plus an additional  3% supplement  - Thank you Mr Brown!!!

So please sponsor me now!
