My story

 

(FOLLOW OUR PROGRESS HERE)

On 22 June 2008, we will be setting off from Land's End to cycle the 1000 odd miles to John O'Groats, arriving on 29 June 2008.  Over the 8 days we will all be cycling the distance, averaging around 125 miles per day (well what's the odd mile here and there!) 

The picture shows us receiving a cheque for £3000 from Michael Jack of John Jack Contracts, Balmakeith, Nairn whose generousity has made this possible!  A special thanks from the team to you Mike.

We would also like to give a massive thanks to all those at Endura who have kindly offered us discounted cycle clothing - a vital part to a successful trip!! (www.endura.co.uk) {PS..2}-->

From left to right Mike, Les, Roger, Ivan, Joshua and Ed

We have also received assistance from MacRae and Dick, Inverness who have donated a vehicle, fuel and insurance.  Thanks go to Ian, Joshua's dad for arranging this and to MacRae and Dick.  We've also heard that we have now got a driver, sandwich maker and general dogs body!  Thanks Alan White from Forres Cycling Club

Loads have cycled this before but the plan is to raise as much as possible for the Hospice.

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Highland 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.

Your pledge will be sent immediately to Highland Hospice and will therefore help fund the wonderful care given freely to hundreds of terminally ill patients every year throughout the Highlands coping with painful symptoms and fears connected to terminal illness.   So please dig deep and sponsor us now!

We will be very grateful for your support and it will inspire us to cycle even harder !

Les, Ed, Joshua, Garry, Roger and Ivan.
