Many thanks to everyone who sponsored me. We had perfect weather for the event and I completed in the beautiful surroundings of the Dolomites it in 6 hours and 39 minutes. Far more importantly, including Gift Aid, I've raised about £1750 for the BSA!

I'm raising money for the Bedelsford School Association (BSA). Bedelsford is a school in Kingston-upon-Thames, London, UK, for children with special educational needs and disabilities. This is the school's website if you want to know more:

I'm combining fundraising with my love of cycling, by cycling one of the world's best 1-day cycle events, the Maratona dles Dolomites, on 6 July 2014:

I've paid all costs related to the event myself, so, apart from Just Giving's charges, all money donated will go to the BSA, which is a charity/non-profit that supports the school by paying for items that official budgets don't fund. The school only has 58 pupils, so there is only a small pool of parents to raise money. I hope that this will motivate you to give something, however small.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
