On Sunday June 5, 2022 I'll be joining an intrepid group of riders at the start of the UK Red Empire State 500, a tough six-day cycling challenge raising money for Rugby League Cares. 

Over six amazing days, we'll follow the historic Erie Canal eastwards from the world-famous waterfalls at Niagara to the state capital of New York, Albany, before heading south along the Hudson River on sections of the Appalachian Trail.

The adventure concludes with a ride through the Bronx, Harlem and along Broadway into Manhattan and the finish in the iconic Central Park.

Rugby League Cares is an independent charity that touches on the lives of people involved at every level of the sport.

We support players at the end of their careers, providing education and training grants that will equip them with the skills and qualifications needed for life after rugby.

RL Cares promote mental fitness and healthy lifestyle initiatives that are changing and saving lives.

Please support me if you can!
