I have been a volunteer engineer with Remap for 17 years and have many times seen how our work designing and making technical equipment can make massive improvements to disabled people's lives. I am also the Chairman of the Basingstoke Panel.

As a regular cyclist I was pleased to be able to take up this fund raising challenge, but at the age of 73 it is going to be hard to do the 300 miles in 4 days, without a rest day.  A real challenge. So please help me to raise money for this very worthwhile charity.
