My story

 

Hi, thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

Over a year ago I was approached by a friend of mine to see if I would be interested in helping raise £50k for crucial new facilities for the Childrens Trust in Tadworth.  

His idea was to organise a bike ride, for as many people that were interested, from Biarritz in France, via the Pyrenees finishing a week later in Barcelona, Spain.  So, on May 17th a team of us will be setting off on our bikes for a 450 mile cycle of a lifetime!

With the start date looming I am both excited and nervous and, remarkably, getting quite fond of lycra.

I would be most grateful if you would show your support and sponsor me on this worthwhile challenge.  Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Children's Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.


Please have a look at our website www.biarritz2barcelona.com to see further details on the charity, route and riders.  Thanks for your support, Steve.
