My story

 

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online as every penny raised will go directly to the MS Trust.

The Trust helps all people that are affected by MS, not just those people diagnosed with this condition. The ride is around 80 miles a day for 4 days, starting in Greenwich and ending in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower.

There is no doubt in my mind that this will be very hard. Just taking a look at the training schedule is not for the faint hearted but......just as my view on MS.....it will not beat me !!! YES, it will hurt.....YES, my body will ache.....YES, it will be a massive challenge......but NO, it wont beat me !!

The one thing being diagnosed with MS has taught me....you can never give up, you must believe in your ability and above all else, you must stay positive. The cure is around the corner, I am sure of it.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: MS Trust 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.

So please sponsor me now as YOU can make the difference!!

Many thanks for your support and dont forget that every penny counts. For my part, I promise not to let you down.

Richard.
