My story

 

Hello!  This is the new fundraising page for my cycling adventure around the world.  I've had to change it as the old one is set to expire in May.  This new page will continue working until 2011, when hopefully I will have completed my journey.

Many thanks, to all of you who have donated already - I'm sorry the old donations cannot be shown on this page.

... and so, the well worn message...

On Saturday 21st March 2009 I will embark on an attempt to circumnavigate the earth on a bicycle.  The journey will span 5 continents, covering approximately 40,000.  With any luck the trip should take about 2 years to complete.

Raising money for Shelterbox - a charity sending life-saving aid across the world to those affected by man made and natural disasters - the event promises to be an extraordinary adventure.

To follow the journey's progress go to www.cyclertw.blogspot.com

For further information about Shelterbox please visit www.shelterbox.org

Thankyou, everyone, for all of your support.
