Story

Hello Everyone! Thank you for taking a minute to visit my Just Giving page, it means a lot!

I’ve set myself a challenge in February 2018 which will involve cycling 185 miles from Buckingham Palace in London to the Eiffel Tower in Paris in just three days to raise money for a charity that’s very close to my heart - Diabetes UK. I’ll be doing this with the perfect companion and very good friend, Lucy Ratcliff. She’s helping to motivate me and train me!

Before starting this adventure, I wasn’t a great lover of exercise and before my preparation began in October, I was incredibly unfit. Prior to this challenge, I’d never ridden a road bike so there’s been a lot to learn in a short space of time during the winter weather. Despite the intense preparation required to be ready in time for February, I’m incredibly eager and excited to cycle from London to Paris. I’ve discovered a new love for cycling so I know that this is the perfect opportunity to get me out in the fresh air to do something amazing for a cause that’s very important to me. I would be incredibly grateful for any support through my Just Giving page and I’m looking forward to keeping you all updated as the adventure unfolds! Your support will really help to inspire me and spur me along on those ever increasing winters bike rides! Thank you ❤🚴🗼
