Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page (created on June 16th)

UPDATE: Brian completed the ride on September 19th after 33 cycling days and 4 rest days. Please continue to donate until mid-November.

Yes, it's true ! Brian (who has no experience of long distance cycling, and has only taken up serious cycling since Christmas) and Colin, who is a serious cyclist, will be cycling across Australia from Perth to Sydney - a distance of over 2,500 miles (4,000 km). Brian will start from Perth on August 14th and be joined by Colin at Kalgoorlie, some 5 days later. They hope to finish in mid-late September. We will be completely self-supported. All donations go to the WaterAid charity to help the poorest people in the world gain access to clean water.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: WaterAid gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now! See more details about my ride on my website www.riscombe.co.uk/cycleride08.htm

Thanks so much!

Brian
