My story

hello close family, not so close family, old mates, new mates, future mates, work acquaintance`s, strangers, cyber mates and all !

I am riding a kawasaki KLR650 motorcycle from Prudhoe Bay, on the arctic ocean coast of alaska, down through north america, mexico, central america and south america, to finally crawl into Ushuaia, tierra del fuego, argentina/chile, the most southerly town on the americas to raise money and awareness for the fragile x syndrome charity.. All the details from wonder, preperation and planning to participation can be seen and followed on my web blog at : www.fragilexpedition.blogspot.com .

Please dig deep and sponsor me online.... if you want to sponsor me, but do not want to use this method, please do not hesitate to contact me and i will get to you with a traditional sheet of paper.. any amount given is superb !

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Fragile X Society 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 me now! and spread the word to all and everyone !

thank you so much for taking me seriously. You will never know how much you have encouraged and inspired confidence in me, just by sponsoring me !

huge regards, simon
