My story

 

Thanks for visiting Simon Tillyer's fundraising page.

We made it!

Trevor and I set off from Lands End on the 12th May 2009 and reached John O'Groats on 18th raising money for a fantastic charity.

We averaged 125 miles per day with a total of 79 "saddle" hours to complete our journey in 7 days.

Thanks so much for all your support and messages received along the way. I am sure it will take a few days for it to sink in exactly what we have just done but for now its great to be home reflecting on one of the best adventures on my life!

If you still wish to donate then you can do so through Justgiving. It is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Newbury & District Cancer Care trust 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.

If you've come to this page directly then you can find out more about the trip on www.followsimon.com.

Thank you so much
Simon.
