Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. 

What started out as light banter has snowed-balled into me somehow thinking it would be a good idea to travel from London to Amsterdam....by bicycle. 

Nothing to do with a mid-life crisis, proving myself after hitting 30, or shedding that extra pound or 2.  The main reason for cycling through 3 countries is to raise vital sponsorship money for a charity very close to a few people's hearts lately.

As some of you know a close friend's dad was diagnosed with a rare degenerative brain disease 7 years ago called Cortico-Basel Degeneration. Michael Spicer's long and hard fight ended on 29th May 2009.  It stole from him the life that he should be enjoying and experiencing now after working so hard all of his life to provide for his family.

Unfortunately though he is not alone.  There are many people in the UK suffering from this, and similar degenerative diseases.  The PSP Association helps patients and families experiencing such traumatic times, and also does vital work to fund research into the causes and possible cures for various degenerative brain conditions. 

This is the real reason for cycling 360 miles starting on 11th July.  All I need now is to raise as much money as I can to go to this worthy charity.  Please dig deep and sponsor me online, every penny will count.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The PSP Association will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Many thanks for your support.
