UPDATE !!!!!

10th January 2009

well its getting ever closer , the new year bought diets and increased exercise programmes with it . We are trying to keep our training schedule in line with the suggested programme . This means that we are out on the bike saturdays and sundays , twice more in the week and as well as that we are doing gym , swimming and walking . The time is going soooo quickly its scary but we know we will be okay if we keep doing what we are doing , we have a final big raffle to complete as well as the walking group that has been very well recieved by the participants , a huge thankyou to all who have supported us in this challenge

Hi All , just another update tp let you know whats happening with our training . We cycled 50kms last saturday and 32 kms on Sunday , first time we have done a back to back weekend with those distances and it wasnt too bad . We had numb nunnies but managed it and it even had a few hills ha ha .

We have been watching Fern Brittons diary on This Morning and its scary !!! looks like it will definitely be the challenge that they say it is ..... and the food looks awful  !!

plenty of minor accidents and thats before clumsy Davina turns up , we are looking forward to it now and want to say a HUGE THANKYOU to all our supporters and sponsors to date

THANKYOU x

From 5th-14th March 2009 three ladies from Mar Menor Golf Resort Kath Penny ,Carol Hegarty and myself Davina Rainbird shall be cycling 380kms across the countryside of Cuba in aid of the charity Women for Women .Many of you may know one if not all of us personally

What started as a little after dinner conversation has now developed into the three of us committing to cycling the 380kms in Cuba , maybe it was too much wine !! but if the truth be known the charity is well worth the hours of training in the gym and on the bike that will be ESSENTIAL for us to meet this challenge .I KNOW we will succeed in the physical side , Its the sponsorship side where we need your help , our challenging target of £9000 means all of your donations will be much appreciated , here is an overview of the charity , im sure you will agree that its more than worth a " numb bum "

Women for women specialise in the prevention , diagnosis and treatment of a range of devastating conditions , which cause cancer , miscarriage , infertility and genetic diseases such as cystic fibrosis or muscular dystrophy . Their fundamental aim is to improve women's ongoing health throughout their lives and to ensure that more women have a normal pregnancy with a healthy baby .

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.

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

Many thanks for your support.
