I am getting on my bike this summer to tackle MND and Be Part of the Cure. Doddie'5 Ride (60 miles/97km) on August 11th 2019. The event starts and finishes at Melrose Rugby Club, taking in the towns of Kelso, Jedburgh and Hawick along the way and is raising funds for My Name'5 Doddie Foundation.

In addition to raising funds for Doddie's charity, I have entered this event as a personal challenge to get back on my bike and go from 0-60 miles with eight weeks of training. Physical exercise is well known to help tackle depression but sometimes it's easier said than done. Finishing this event will be something positive to look back on and provide a sense of achievement. 

Please donate what you can afford and don't forget to add gift aid for a little extra bonus. 

Cheers, Neil
