Hi,

Firstly, thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

So, Kev & I are off to see the seaside. However, unlike most normal seaside goers, we are leaving by bike at 7.30am on a Sunday morning. If all goes to plan, 5hrs 30mins(approx) and 54 miles later, we'll be able to relax on the beach with a thoroughly deserved beer. 

Now for the serious bit. Although the official bike ride charity is the British Heart Foundation, this is my very first charity fundraising event and I wanted to raise money for Cancer Research since my Dad died of Cancer 2 years ago. Please be generous, dig deep and sponsor us online so that we may achieve and exceed our target.

For those that wish to sponsor us for the official bike ride's charity (BHF), please follow the link to our BHF sponsorship page, http://www.justgiving.com/mark_orchard_bhf

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

So please sponsor us now!

On behalf of Kev & myself, many thanks for your support.

Mark
