Story
Dale, Kane, Matt, Adrian and Ben are taking on the Ride London - Essex 30 mile challenge to help raise money for a cure for Mollie
There will be blood, sweat and tears and probably a lot of moaning and groaning! Us boys aren’t getting any younger, but we are sure to have a lot of admirers when we line up on the starting grid in our Lycra and beer bellies!
If we make it all the way round to the finish in one piece we are sure to have a few celebratory lagers in the nearest drinking house.
Training begins now (cos we haven’t done any cycling in the last 12 months or more!!) and to a great day and a worthy cause on the 29th May! All the best and thank you for supporting us.
Mollie was born with a rare disease called Ataxia Telangiectasia, a progressive and debilitating movement disorder that effects physical activity, fine motor skills, speech and some internal organs.
We were not expecting this after previously being given the all clear for ‘AT’ in 2019 - but last year she was devastatingly diagnosed with this rare disease.
Symptoms typically progress from age 5, causing loss of balance, coordination and tremors leaving children wheelchair bound by age 10. The condition also affects her immune system, and respiratory system along with making her more sensitive to radiation and children with A-T also have an increased risk of cancers.
Mollie is 5 - we are on desperate race against the clock to find a treatment or cure to help stop this awful disease and help save our little girl from it’s devastating effects. Mollie lives to dance and our wish is that she will always be able to...
Every penny will be donated to research to find a treatment for Mollie and other children like her - we have so much hope something will be found very soon.
Thank you for taking the time to read our page and for your kind donations.
