Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.


In May I will be cycling from Bristol to Edinburgh to raise money for MediCinema.  My proposed route will take me 500 miles across the country, up A roads, B roads, across the North Yorkshire Moors and over Hadrien's Wall through rain, sleet, winds and hopefully some sun. I will be traveling this distance unsupported.  My steed for this odyssey will be my mountain bike, the 'International Bicycle of Rock and Justice'. It has 21 gears,  of which nearly half are in perfect working order. 


The route, for the geographically minded among you, is as follows:


Day 1:  Bristol- Stratford upon Avon                71.3 miles


Day 2: Stratford upon Avon- Sleaford             78 miles


Day 3: Sleaford- Scunthorpe                            61.3 miles


Day 4: Scunthorpe- Bridlington                        64 miles


Day 5: Bridlington- Thornbury on Tees           67 miles


Day 6: Thornbury on Tees- Hexham               49 miles


Day 7: Hexham- Galashiels                              63 miles


Day 8: Galashiels- Edinburgh                          31 miles


                                     Total mileage:                484 


It is predicted that in all the distance will be over 500 miles once suitable campsites have been found each night. However if this is not the case then once I am at Edinburgh I will do a lap or two of the airport to round the mileage up. This will be verifiable by the GPS records that I will be making along the way. 


I am humbly requesting that you contribute, no matter how small the amount, to help support this wonderful charity.
