My story

Hi all,

Just a few words to say thanks for following the link to this site.

As you can tell from the picture, I am taking park in a motorcyle challange. Riding 1300km around India on a 500cc Royal Enfield Bullet Motorbike alongside 20+ other keen bikers. These bikes were top of the range in the UK quite a few years ago but have now been superceeded by much classier and more comfortable bikes. The route will take us through some of India's cities as well as rural villages. We will join the locals in jostling for position on roads which will be travelled by all manner of vehicles and animals - elephants are a common site! Some roads will be good, others will be little more than a dirt track - that is where the challenge comes in.

With your help, I will be able to raise much needed funds for the ACE Centre, a small charity based in Oxford who assist children who are unable to communicate.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: ACE Centre Advisory Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now and help me make a difference.

Thanks

Mark
