Cycling from London to Edinburgh last year with my son Andrew was fantastic because we supported each other during the exhilarating challenge and shared beautiful landscapes; sang in the rain; shed tears of joy at the finish and importantly, we raised vital funds supporting Friends of the Earth's important environmental work.

 

 

Everyone benefits from the sustainable solutions we can make a reality.

We are willingly putting ourselves through the miles of cold, wet and windy weather so that you can stay at home and feel lovely and warm and good about giving, without getting wet or breaking out in a sweat, but still make an important contribution to defending our environment. 

 

I am really excited to take part in this year's ride with my eldest son, James who's also looking forward to the experience - especially after all the stories he's had to listen to from us about "the time we cycled to Edinburgh".  It is the most selfish way to raise money for a great organisation.
