Story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

JUST BACK AT HOME AFTER AN AMAZING FOUR DAYS. Lots of hard work, sore bums, sunshine, laughter, great team work, tears and new friends who share our passion to beat blood cancers. You can see new photos from the UNSTOPPABLES LONDON-PARIS RIDE and see more about our journey at http://www.youtube.com/user/beatbloodcancers  

Great News - I'm delighted that Dan Reeve is joining me and the Unstoppables for our ride from London to Paris.

 

I'm riding to Paris for lots of reasons.

For Lynn who lost her eldest son Neal to acute leukaemia but never stops helping other people. For Amanda whose a survivor but at 16 has already had two joint replacements because of the side-effects of the poisons that saved her life. For all the 130,000 people living with a blood cancer in the UK and the newly diagnosed - one every 20 minutes - who are coming to terms with their dreadI'm riding because people who know about these things tell me that we are on the verge of a break-through. Our understanding of the biology of blood cancers and the availability of new technologies and drugs mean that we can look forward to a time when no one dies of a blood cancer and those with the disease will be able to live the life they want to lead. Now is our time to make it happen!

i'm riding because I celebrated my 60th birthday in April and want to prove to myself that I can still do it. Cycling up the Champs Elysee with 200 other LLR riders will be amazing.

I'm riding for Tim, our younger son, who was so brave. The tough times of my ride will be nothing compared to the pain and torment he went through.

Every penny will help to save a life and give more young people the chance to make their dreams come true, so please donate now.
