So the picture last year speak volumes... When I reached the finish line I unclipped myself, dusted off the sweat, bugs and tears, jumped for joy but soon collapsed into a hot bubble bath, smiling with relief that I'd actually cycled from London to Brighton - I can tick that box and never have to look at a bike again...

How naive of me!

I'm back in the saddle and raring to go this year... the sheer exhiliration and knowing that the selfless act of peddling a few miles is nothing in comparison to what The British Heart Foundation does.

So thank you for sponsoring me last year... this year I again ask that you dig deep and show me your support - it really helped me get through the gruelling 5 hour drudge.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you
