My story

!!!!!Update!!!!

Hi folks – sad to say the ride didn’t go as expected. On day 5 I was suffering from a virus I had blurred vision and nearly came off the bike on several occasions. We did the sensible thing and came home to recover. Thankyou for the sponsorship –and I apologise that I did not complete my intended ride. In the end I road 300 miles - I stopped on the south side of the forth bridge. This included a day of over 100 miles, crossing two mountain passes, cycling up 13% hills and cycling into a 30mph headwind (not to mention the rain)!.

Best regards

Shaun

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Thanks to a chance conversation in a pub last year, i have agreed to join my friend in a cycling extravaganza. Those of you who know me and my portly shape will say this cannot be done - if you are that confident i dare you to sponser me per mile!! I set off on the 15th and intend to finish on the 28th August.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: CCS Adoption gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
