Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I was persuaded to take part in a bike ride - 350km in 5 days!  "See the sights of Cuba" they said.  All very well, but there was a little more to it than that...

The challenge was extremely tough - lots of hills, some really bad road surfaces, and 30 degree heat, to name a few of the issues - and completing it with the 22 other cyclists was overwhelming and highly emotional. 

I chose to support Marie Curie Cancer Care because their nurses were so supportive during my Auntie May's last days at home.  It's what has kept me motivated whilst training in the horizontal rain.

I paid for the trip myself, so you're not contributing towards my costs, every donation goes straight to Marie Curie Cancer Care.  All my sponsors so far have blown away the minimum sponsorship target, but every pound counts, so please donate as much as you can.  

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Marie Curie Cancer Care 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.

Thanks for your support.
