My personal message:

As most of you know, my wife Josie lost her battle with breast cancer in December 2007, aged only 42.

To say thank you to St Wilfrid's Hospice for all the care and support they provided to both Josie and my family, and to help them to continue to support other families, I will be raising money by cycling solo from Bilbao to Bognor.

I will be leaving Bognor on 18th June 2008, and cycling to Portsmouth to catch the ferry to Bilbao, Spain. My 1000 mile journey will take me along the Atlantic Coast of France to Calais, where I will take the ferry back to Dover and ride back along the South Coast to Bognor Regis. I will be riding completely unaided, camping each night and praying for nice weather!!!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: St Wilfrid's Hospice 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.

Many thanks for your support.
