Story
I am doing a 100km sponsored bike ride!
I am going on a World Challenge Expedition to China for a month in 2019. I will trek in the Chinese mountains for eight days, and then I will live and work in a poor, rural farmland community to help with a project to help purify their extremely polluted water, and to push for organic farming. Part of the challenge is to raise £4850 for the trip and I will be doing this by offering to do jobs for residents of my village and by hosting an evening of Big Band music at our local Heritage Railway on Saturday 21st April. I have already raised over £1,000 by doing jobs like dog sitting, cat feeding, leaflet delivery and car washing.
I have set up this page because I am also going to do a 100km sponsored bike ride and I am hoping to raise some sponsorship through this Just Giving page!

5 years agoOur ride yesterday was amazing! 103.8km round Thame and the Chilterns, including the all-important stop at China Town (takeaway restaurant in Tring!) as a nod to my World Challenge destination - see photo! (There are more photos on my mum's Facebook page.) Thank you to my Dad, Rich, Musky and Ed for joining me on this epic ride! And thanks to Beth and my mum (and Madeleine!) for being in the support vehicle. Thank you so much to everyone who has already sponsored me. If anyone else wants to sponsor me, it will be really appreciated!

In the summer of 2019 I am going on a world challenge expedition to China and I need to raise £4850 to pay for it. I am going on a 100km sponsored bike ride with my dad (and some friends with bikes) to help me reach my target!
