My story

 

Thank you for visiting this Fund Raising page!

Please see our Blog: http://www.rmcycle.co.uk for regular updates to our progress.


Starting on 01 June 2009, when we return from Iraq, members of COMUKAMPHIBFOR will cycle the length of our fine nation, from John O'Groats to Land's End (approx 1,000 miles by our route and against the south westerly prevailing winds) in 10 days, stopping at Sellyoak Hospital and any RM/RMR units on the way.  All of the cyclists have done at least one Iraq tour, most have more than one. The majority of us are Afghanistan veterans and we even have a bone fide Falklands veteran!  The highest ranking officer within our group is also a product of Headley Court's rehabilitation programme.

It is our aim to raise £30,000 for Help For Heroes in order to help our fallen brethren in these troublesome times.  To see how the money is spent and just why it is necessary, see : http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/how_we_spend.html.  Every single penny really is focussed towards the care and rehabilitation of those who so urgently need it.

We are currently stationed in Basrah and subsequently have no access to bicycles. All training is being conducted on Trixter X1000 Spinning Cycles! If you could recommend some music, that would also be great ;o)
