Tom and Dave cycle South America · 28 June 2008

Ali's Dream charity was set up by Alison Phelan's family and friends in order to raise money to fund research into discovering the causes, advancing treatments and finding cures for childhood brain tumours. Sadly this was spurred on by the loss of Alison at the beginning of June 2001.

Story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page. Please give generously to this very worthy cause.

In November 2008 David Perkins and Tom Skipper will be embarking on a 7000 mile journey cycling the length of South America!

They'll be riding in memory of Adam Smith who tragically died due to a brain tumour aged just 15. The charity we have decided to raise money for is named Ali's Dream. They fund research into childhood brain tumours, aiming to reduce the numbers of cases like Adams.

Starting at Tierra del Fuego, Argentina, our route will take us through seven countries. We will cycle through the Atacama Desert, across the salt flats of Bolivia, at altitudes of over 5000m in the Andes, and into 100kph winds in Tierra del Fuego.

Please visit our website (www.bikingsouthamerica.co.uk) for full details of the expedition, photos and updates on our progress.

So... please please please donate lots of money to this very worthy cause. I can assure you that we'll both be working VERY hard for all the money you donate!!!!!!

Thanks very much for your support!
