Story
Survived a high speed crash yesterday, as the peleton collapsed in front of me and I took off over them all, landing upside down in the road with my bike still attached to me, having completed a small but perfect somersault in mid air! Nothing broken, but a few aches and pains.
We head towards London today and then to Wales, the Ireland then Scotland- 2888km in total, we hit the half way point later today. Body weary, but in good spirits.
However, this ride is for a number of great causes, one being DebRA, a charity for kids suffering from the genetic skin blistering condition Epidermolysis Bullosa. It is a horrendous disease and we are hoping that some of the money raised will help find a cure for this terrible disease. Please see the below link

I only ask for a small amount of your time and generosity - both of which can change people lives.
Come on guys, make the effort and please please give generously.

As I look out of the window and try and summon up the energy to go for my final training ride, I am starting to question why I agreed to take part in this ridiculous challenge.
Still I am and it is a modest 2888km starting this Friday 12th February- oh and with freezing rain, ice and wind. Sounds fun. Well there are two things you can do
1) tell me I am a big girls blouse and it’s easy - and then you should come and cycle the whole thing with me
or
2) Sponsor me!
Trust me, the second option is the easiest.
The charities are ones I personally feel very strongly about; Cancer Research and Help For Heroes both via Sport Relief.
Please do what you can and give generously
Thanks
Jonny
