My story

Dear All

On 12th May I'll be setting off from Land's End on a near 1000 mile cycle ride to John O'Groats. This is a solo and unsupported trip which should take me 11 days.

I will be blogging my trip, when I can find a PC, on the following site:

http://phillejog2007.blogspot.com/

I'm raising money for Medecins Sans Frontieres UK, a charity that provides emergency medical care, particularly in the developing world. I'd really appreciate your support.

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

Thank you
Phil

UPDATE Fri 18/5/7: in Carlisle, on target to make my train home next Thursday...

UPDATE Tue 22/5/7: In Inverness, only 118 miles to go...

FINAL UPDATE: I made it to John O'Groats at 2pm on Wed 23/05/07, a total of 958 miles in 11.5 days. Thank you to everyone who supported and sponsored me.
