Biking for Brian -Kirsty's page

Maggie's Centres - Monster Bike & Hike 2012 · 5 May 2012 ·
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Amazingly enough -we did it! We completed the silver challenge of the Maggie's Monster bike and hike. We started just before 8am on 5th May and finished just after midnight, after a gruelling 31.5 mile cycle followed by a 23.5 mile hike - with lots of hills and off roading thrown in, just to keep us on our toes! It was a fitting tribute to my amazing husband Brian who died in December 2011 after a long and incredibly brave battle with cancer. We both received a lot of support from the Maggies centre in Edinburgh during his illness so by doing this challenge its a chance to give something back and remember Brian, doing something that he would have really enjoyed -he loved getting out on his bike, and walking in the hills.
Its been a huge effort for me to get out and do the training for the Monster -but I know it will be worth it and Brian would be so chuffed that we're doing this for him .He'll be with us all the way in spirit, so please give generously in his memory. Thank you
