Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving Singleminded pages for Velindre hospital. After a successful Velothon 2016, we're back to do it all again; this time with even more riders.

At some point, we've all been affected by cancer. It's taken a loved one. Or A friend. A relative. A co-worker. A team-mate. A neighbour. It's the disease of our age.

The Singleminded initiative is about raising money for a choice of 3 charities; Velindre hospital, Kirkewood hospital (London) and Cancer Research Wales. All three are involved in the fight against cancer; either in treatment, care, research or all three. The charities were chosen after direct experience of their incredible work. It's a tagline we've all heard, but we feel it's true; by lending your support we'll beat this bloody disease.

Singleminded is a group of cyclists riding long events on single speed bikes. Yep it's uncomfortable, but nowhere near as much as cancer. Please help us to help others. One cause, many people. Thanks for listening.
