Story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

Jenna and I successfully completed the course in 7 hours, we made it up every hill, and even broke the speed limit down some! It was touch and go as to whether or not we would be able to complete it on a tandem for a while, as soon after picking it up we could not even manage to ride in a straight line! After 30 mins practice though, we felt confident enough to cycle the 4 miles back home, which then gave us the confidence to do the whole route the following day.

If you don't think riding 70 miles on VERY hilly terrain on a tandem is hard enough, then why not sponsor us for breaking the pain barrier on several occasions during the day! we're still aching now, so I think that at least deserves a sponsor!!

We all know someone personally or know someone that knows someone who has been affected by cancer, so this is a really good cause, and I know we're in the middle of a credit crunch right now, but if you could all just dig deep and donate as much as you can, that would be great. As every little helps! Even if it's just £2, it will all mount up!

And don't forget, if you're a tax payer, tick the gift aid box, as that means that for ever £1 you pledge, the charity can gain an extra 25p!


Thanks for all the support!
