Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

For as long as I can remember I have loved going fast, whether it was in the go kart my grandfather made me, on my first bike or later in various cars. I have also enjoyed following the Tour De France in recent years to see how Bradley Wiggins, Mark Cavandish and the gang were doing.

However, I have not been a part of a team challenge since I gave up playing Hockey in my 20's......... then the opportunity to join a team my work colleagues on a cycle run through France came up. This was a great way to combine raising funds for a fantastic charity with the day dream of a 50 year old hurtling "head down, tail up" on a sleek bike along the boulevards of Paris............. Then I came crashing down to earth with the realisation that this would involve wearing LYCRA !!!

So, if you like the thought of inflicting pain, suffering and lycra - clad humiliation on me, please sponsor me to complete this challenge: London to Paris in 4 days................. and together we can really make a difference to someone less fortunate than ourselves.
