Story

Having survived Necrotising Fasciitis, Leukaemia, sepsis, a stroke, a brain swell and a hip Disarticulated Amputation - I have started to ride an exercise bike with one leg during lockdown. I plan to cycle 300Km during July 2020 with the bike set on the highest difficulty level.  Any money raised will go towards the ICU Ward at Barnstaple Hospital to which I owe a debt of gratitude for saving my life. Also my wife threatened to find housework for me if I wasn't busy. Thank you for all your support in advance, it means a lot.
