My story

As part of their ongoing attempts to make the world a better place, Chris, Bruno, Rafa, Joe, Nick and Eduardo will be cycling from London to Paris! This great feat shall be achieved despite the fact that:

1) None of them know anything at all about cycling (or indeed anything); 2) No one seems to have done any training, or devised yet a route; and 3) Chris will be required to get up earlier than he ever has in his life.

In undertaking this trip, they hope to raise money for vulnerable street children in the poorest areas of Brazil, abandoned by their parents and by society. Action for Brazil's Children Trust (ABC) is one of the most highly respected charities dedicated to this most worthy of causes, reaching out to over 3,000 children every day through a wealth of projects dedicated to education, the provision of medicines and basic needs, and wider community and arts projects.

Please bear in mind that a little money can go a long way in Brazil, so donating even a small amount will make a real difference. Just TWO POUNDS can provide a child with essential healthcare, and 10 pounds can ensure that same child is fed for two weeks.

We really cannot reiterate enough what a great cause this is, so anything at all that you can spare will be sincerely appreciated.

Thank you so much for your time.

Chris, Bruno, Rafa, Joe, Nick and Eduardo
