My story
On the 6 April, we will be embarking on a charity cycle from London to Amsterdam. We aim to complete the 570km in three and a half days, with two, two man tandem cycles and three solo riders. Riding through four countries over the Easter weekend we will be spending over nine hours a day in the saddle, averaging 140km a day.
We have decided to raise money for ‘Blind In Business’, a fantastic charity that helps blind and visually impaired people achieve their ambitions. This is a charity that is very close to our hearts as Dan and Smithy, members of the team, have a rare disease that has led to a sudden loss in eyesight over the last eighteen months and are now registered blind as a result. Blind In Business have supported the brothers overcome adversity and are continuing with their on-going rehabilitation.
The success of the charity fundraising is really important to the whole team and so we hope that you will get behind us and tell your friends, family and wider networks so that they can support us as we are determined to make this a success on every front.
My charity
