Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Between the years of 1973 and 1986 I held a commission in the The Army. During that time I had regular contact with members of the services and I was always impressed with their professionalism and dedication. I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to underatake a number of personal challenges in my life and and as I prepare for the ride from Rotterdam to Istanbul my thoughts are with those who have been injured in the service of the nation. They deserve the very best of care we can give them as they seek to undertake their own personal  challenges of rebuilding their bodies and their lives.

There are 4 of us in the cycling group. Our trip begins in Rotterdam on August 30th and we plan to reach Istanbul on 5th October. We will pass through 9 countries on our journey of 2000+ miles. We plan to cycle on 32 days at an average distance of 100km/62.5 miles per day and to have 5 rest days on the way. Wish us well !!
