Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

James and I (pictured) are cycling across Europe in the infamous Transcontinental Race http://www.transcontinental.cc where you can follow our progress over 4000km and 50000m of ascent (and descent!) from the 29th July. Even for seasoned cyclists, this is an  enormous challenge - competitors are required to be self sufficient and the clock never stops. 

I'm racing in memory of my wonderful father, Malcolm, himself a keen cyclist, who died after a cycling accident in September 2014 and we're raising money for a fantastic local charity, Wheels for Wellbeing. This award-winning charity supports disabled people of all ages and abilities to enjoy the benefits of cycling; last year alone 1200 disabled people and their carers and families learned to cycle with them. 

Sincere thanks for your support! 

Andrew and James
