Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Please help me raise money for Blind Veterans UK.  I've chosen this charity because I feel a personal connection; although mine was a simple accident at a firework party, having lost sight in my left eye and going through 20 operations  I feel I have an understanding of what it is like to become blind and how devastating it could be.

As a keen cyclist, riding 100 miles through London and Surrey isn't a huge personal challenge, but completing the course in under 5 hours would be.  To give me more of an incentive and to hopefully raise more money, how about pledging a small amount initially, and either doubling it if I complete it in under 5 hours, or sponsoring me for every minute I am under 5 hours?  Last year it took me 5 hrs 45 mins, and  I will publish my official time after the event.
