Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have previously taken to running to raise money for my favorite animal but recently having suffered many sports related injuries I recognize that my running days may well be over. So I am switching to the bike. I have never competed in a bike race before nor have I cycled in a pack, know any of the hand signals, or etiquette. I am scared of the bunching up of cyclists so have registered myself on a seemingly easy ride around Lac Leman/ Lake Geneva. I assume easy as lake rides tend to be flat. I have also registered myself under the slowest speed, but who knows perhaps I surprise myself and go faster.

Why am I doing this? There are more important things in the world that require fixing and conservation of endangered species, in my opinion, is one of them. I could observe the rhino in its natural habitat literally for hours and hours, and I believe that the gift I can share with my children's children is for them to have the opportunity to experience the same.

Follow me on STRAVA or here as I try to document my progress over the coming months, work out what indoor training gear to get to pass through the winter months, as well as rehabilitate from my current ankle injury. 

Thank you for your support and encouragement!
