My story

 

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. This year to help the Hospice I'm going to be competing in the Mega Avalanche, one of the world's longest and toughest downhill mountain bike races in Alpe D'Huez in July 2008. I haven't got a lot of experience of this at the moment so it's going to be a real challenge to get good enough to compete.  You can follow my progress on my blog at www.2brave.co.uk

I'm funding all the travel and entry costs myself so every penny raised here goes straight to the hospice to support their work.  Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

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

Many thanks for your support.

Matt
