Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Ben & Josh are 10 & 11 yr old brothers. When they heard their 7 yr old cousin Jessica was starting her second battle against an aggressive brain tumour, they decided to raise money to help.

Keen cyclists, they decided to use their Xmas holidays to cycle the 8,848m of altitude, to reach the summit of Mt. Everest...on static, indoor bike trainers!

In two weeks the boys aim to ride more than 500m per day of altitude gain, in order to reach their target. To achieve this they will have to cycle more than 300Km in distance, (mostly uphill,) using the popular on-line cycling platform 'Zwift.' 

The boys hope to raise enough money to fund 1 day of research into Brain Tumours, which currently costs £2740.00.

The challenge will start on Saturday Dec 19th 2020, and end on Thursday Dec 31st 2020.
