Thanks for taking the time to visit the Sewell Big Bad Bike Ride JustGiving page.

Paul Sewell, Paul Brooke, Rob Cawkwell, Patrick Sewell, John Hogg, Quentin Wilson, Richard Greaves and David Craven-Jones will attempt the ‘Big Bad Bike Ride’ on 10-11 September on the hilly terrain of Pitlochry in Scotland.

The course is situated north of Edinburgh and will see the team attempt a 70 mile ride around the beautiful scenery, hills and mountains that form the heart of Scotland.

The team will put their bodies on the line to raise a target of £10,000 for Ataxia UK, a charity that funds research into finding treatments and a cure, as well as supporting people who are directly affected by ataxia, which is a loss of coordinated bodily movements.

The most common type, Friedreich’s ataxia, is a crippling degenerative genetic disease of the central nervous system which usually only becomes apparent in children when they reach the age of seven, attacking the central nervous system which means the child is likely to require the use of a wheelchair.
