Hello lovely people,

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

I've decided, in a fit of madness, to cycle 300 miles in six days through the desert in searing heat (with Irish skin...) - all in the name of charidee.

Despite the fact that the last time I visited the gym was last year (I think), I've signed on the dotted line, so there's no turning back. I shall be training as of next week and making sure I pack my factor 50 million, as well as my best Elvis wig for the night in Vegas after the trip (assuming I don't pass out on the way.)

As part of my pledge I have to raise a minimum of just under £3,000.  Ideally though I'd like to raise more, so if you could please dig deep into your pockets and hand over some of your hard-earned cashola I would be eternally grateful (and, more importantly, so will the street children in Venezuela).

Thanks for your support.
