Hello!

My name is Nathaniel and for as long as I can remember I have been interested in aviation. It is something very close to my heart. I am training for my private pilot's license at Barton aerodrome and want to be a commercial airline pilot when I am older. It will be a great experience to help out a charity like the air ambulance!

My name is Ben. I go to the RAF Air Cadets. From there, I have gained a passion for aviation, and I look forward to helping an aviation-related charity alongside Nathaniel.

We have planned for our cycle to start at the North West air ambulance site located at Barton aerodrome. From there, we will cycle to, our destination: the Air Ambulance base at Cambridge airport. Along the way we will be stopping at several more of their sites, such as, The Air Ambulance Service East Midlands and the Air Ambulance station at RAF Wyton.

We decided that we wanted to do a cycle for the air ambulance, because it is a charity that purely relies on donations. Throughout the duration of the 4 day cycle we plan on covering a distance of around 50 miles a day.
