My story

 

We did it....  After 3 longs days we finally finished on the Sunday evening.  Help us to hit our target.  We are so close.


Its that time of year for getting carried away with good causes again.

Simon, Gervase, Luke and David are racing 875 Km (540+ miles) in 3 days up through the Alps this year.

Yes... on bikes... again!

Gervase chose the Alzheimer's Society but can't remember when or why!  He has direct experience of watching loved ones slowly decline and so we would really appreciate your help in our mad quest to raise money for this worthy cause.

The team rides under the banner "Tilshead Tortoises" with Simon poking his head out for the 8th year running!

Don't hibernate before giving something.
