I'm taking on the 100km challenge over the course of June to support the Just a Drop Dash. I'm going to be cycling a minimum of 100km (62 miles) and hoping to raise as much money as possible from you kind readers to support Just a Drop's Coronavirus Response worldwide. Please support me! I'll be posting updates on my cycling efforts on my page.

The funds raised will go towards Just A Drop's amazing work to bring sustainable clean water supplies, sanitation and hygiene projects to impoverished and vulnerable communities around the world. In this time of the global covid-19 pandemic for remote communities without easy access to quality healthcare, the ability to be able to wash hands and easily keep clean is essential if they are to avoid the worst of the ravages the disease brings. 

This particular challenge is focussed on Cambodia, one of my favourite countries in the world. Having spent so many years living in southeast Asia, I know first hand just how hard life is for some rural communities. And Cambodia, as we all know, has had more than its fair share of war and extreme suffering. Coronavirus is another disaster affecting the country.

To raise funds I will be cycling 100km. I actually bought my first ever brand new bicycle a few weeks ago, so let's put it to good use. I actually went out today and did more than 20 miles in the glorious Sussex countryside near here, but it won't count as I forget to enable Strava to track my efforts. Back to square one.

First of many fails probably, and I promise to document them here as they happen, but please do sponsor me. You will be doing something amazing.

What can you do to make me cycle further?

For the sadists among you, you can make me pedal further and further. However, please specify in your message you'd like this.
