Story

<p>URGENT HELP REQUIRED!!!</p> <div class="frp-message clearfix dotted-border-blue"> <div id="story" class="frp-message-body" style="height: auto;"> <p>This September I&nbsp;will be attempting the <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Amsterdam300 Challenge </strong></span>in aid of <strong>SCOPE </strong>-&nbsp;Englands leading disability&nbsp;Charity with two of my colleagues <strong>Nick Butcher </strong>and <strong>James Parsons. </strong></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>The Amsterdam 300 : 300 miles : 4 countries : 2 days : 1 ride</strong></span></p> <p>We will be riding 300 miles from London to Amstedam in 48 hours!&nbsp;Vaseline anyone?&nbsp;</p> <p>We depart from London when Big Ben strikes midnight on the Thursday for a night ride to&nbsp;Dover. From here we pedal through France and onto Belgium where we take a rest ready for the final push trough to Holland&nbsp;and onto the finish line&nbsp;in the Dam Square in Amsterdam! I can confirm that training is in full flow at the moment although my confidence is slightly dented by the tricycle overtaking me on a 68 miler last week!!</p> <p>This is a massive challenge for the 3 of us (especially me and my lil hobbit legs) as we will need to get some serious training in ready to stand up to the endurance element of the ride. We are riding in order to raise money for <strong>SCOPE</strong> and have set a target of &pound;5,000 between us.&nbsp;All donations are hugly appreciated and will be going to a&nbsp;great cause.</p> <p>Thanks for anything you can spare!</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p> </div> </div>
