My story

 

On 26, 27 and 28 June 2009 I will be cycling the 250 miles from London to Paris in order to raise money for Alzheimer's Society.

Yep, that's 80 miles a day for 3 days (about the same as London to Southampton each day). To train for this I will cycle the equivalent of London to Moscow (over 1,500 miles).

My grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's disease immediately before her death, and so I have witnessed the devastation that this can cause to individuals and the families that care for them. Shortly before her death, Nanny Jack did not know who I was and believed my sister was my wife. At times she thought the war was still on and believed she had to care for her children (the eldest of whom was nearly 60 at the time).

Please support me in raising money for this important cause.
