So, what am I doing?...
Cycling from one side of the country to another (coast to coast)- from Whitehaven to Sunderland. This is 134 miles of cylcing in 3 days!
Why am I doing this?...
As many of you know I enjoy riding my bike!!
But there is more to it than that...
A friend of mine (Mazza) organises this ride every year for Worth Unlimited. A group of about 30 people are doing this, each trying to raise £250... making our group aim £7500!!
Worth Unlimited is a Christian charity whose vision is to help "address the needs of marginalised and excluded young people throughout the UK"
"Building hope, unlocking potential and realising worth in young people is what Worth Unlimited is all about"
For more info, see: http://www.worthunlimited.co.uk/
Giving hope and new opportunities to young people is one of the things that is particularly close to my heart, as some of you know I currently volunteer for a community project that runs football coaching for young people in an estate in London. So by joining in this ride I hope to contribute to the work the worth unlimited does for needy teenagers throughout the UK.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, I know lots of people ask for sponsorship, but if you can spare even a small amount, that would go towards helping me reach my target, that would be great!
Details...
All the cyclists have covered the costs of the bike ride, so every penny you give goes directly to Worth Unlimited....
