Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In 2013 I took part in the Bruno Challenge riding from Cologne, Germany to Ampleforth, Yorkshire with the aim of raising funds for a bursary to Ampleforth College. This will enable disadvantaged children to attend the school and commemorate the all too short life of Bruno Mycielski. Our collective hope is that wonderful things may come of a deeply saddening loss.

The original challenge raised a staggering £460k, taking us a long way towards our target of £600k. This is all thanks to the many, many generous donations which came in in support of our efforts.

To help raise the remaining amount we're getting back on the bikes for one final (I hope) challenge; the Bruno 200. Two hundred miles over two days, with 200 riders, from Chatsworth House to Ampleforth Abbey.

With less training and many more hills, this will be a real challenge for me. I would greatly appreciate your support, big or small. Or even bigger.

Many thanks in advance, James
