We are writing to let you know we have taken up the challenge of cycling from John O'Groats to Lands End to help raise funds for the Cynthia Spencer Hospice in Northampton. We have always had a desire to take on a physical endurance challenge and tour the UK, and at the age of 30 the time just seemed right. Cycling End to End fitted the bill perfectly and the challenge was set! Our ride will be starting from John O'Groats on the 8th June and fingers crossed finishing at Lands End on the 20th June 2008. In order to complete this in 13 days we will need to cycle 70 -80 miles a day and as long as the blisters hold, the wind and rain stay away the sun shines it will be achieved. We are still working on the theory that cycling from Scotland to Cornwall is all down hill! Training started early January and we only wished we started sooner! But preparations are going really well. The route is planned and the charity of our choice is Cynthia Spencer Hospice. A local Northampton Charity whose work to support people in their time of need is invaluable, so please help us to help them so that their excellent work can continue. Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: The Cynthia Spencer Charitable 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. So please sponsor us now! Many thanks for your support. Clive Jason & Ali
