Windsor to Chinon Cycle Ride, w/c 20th September 2009

Thanks for helping support our French cycling trip which I am doing in

memory of my friend Jon Farrar, with whom I grew up and spent many happy

days cycling through the Hertfordshire countryside.

He died last year from Motor Neurone Disease, which is still incurable

but there is some great work being conducted in trying to find a

treatment. They are really short of funds, so if you can help in any way

it would make a big difference for future suffers.

To raise money, four of us are cycling 350 miles over 5 days, from

Windsor to Chinon in the Loire valley. We have been planning and

training over the spring and summer and are now ready to make the trip,

albeit that we know it will be tough and we might not be able to sit

down for a week afterwards.

As I hope you know, donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and

totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never

sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your

money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on

every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it's the most efficient way

to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the

charity.

Thanks for helping find a cure for MND!
