Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.... well i did it.... 300 miles of undulating hills, sun, wind and rain and the sight of the arc de triomphe was a beauty, cycling down the champs elysee was out of this world and finishing under the eiffel tower, well what can i say... the group of cyclists caused a standstill with the traffic, and tourists ran alongside us to cheer us on and take pictures... it was just amazing.... but the question you really want answered is, yes....it was hard, it hurt and took everything out of me to do... it was a real challenge and couldn't have done it without the support of friends/ family and many of the other cyclists....Thank you Dave, Richard and Marcus in particular for cycling with me for most of the journey... To the people that doubted me...sorry..there was no way i was going to let my charity down!

Its not too late to donate...do it now!

I started raising money with a charity auction at the Glass house and had some fantastic donations from : Clipso Hairdressers in the Maltings in St Albans, Clothing from ukkolours.com, Food at Zizi's from Ask Restaurants, A visit to the Elstree,Eastenders set and Pure digital Radio from J.Kellers... and a private party from The Glass House, who have helped loads with the parties... 

  Grove House have helped friends in the past and have been fantastic in their support to them and their families, which is why i would like to donate to the hospice, especially as their funding has been cut this year...

ManyThanks to Tim Hiskett for the £100 donation !And Thank you Father Mark for collecting at  church in london colney, and Sarah-Jane for sending out the e-mails..nice one!

So... sponsor me now... it's easy and its for a good cause and support me on the 300 mile cycle ride to Paris.... Don't forget to Gift Aid if you're a tax payer, it doesn't cost you anything and you'll help raise more money....
