My story

Hello there!

I'm off on my bike again, hoping to raise some funds for the Aplastic Anaemia Trust as well as enjoying the journeys!

I've already ticked four rides off from this year's list:

April 16-19 - 140 miles in France

May 17-18 - 130 miles - Weston Super Mare to Hayling Island

June 19-22 - 220 miles, Normandy, France

July 12-19 - 420 miles - Tour de Tours II, France encore

and have one more in store:

Cathedral to Cathedral, Canterbury to Chichester (September 12-13 - 120 miles)

By the middle of September, then, I'll have covered over 1,000 miles - excluding training rides. It would be so great to be able to rustle together £1 per mile for the AAT, whose work truly can and does save lives. Thank you for your help.

Best wishes and thanks

Melanie
