Story

London to Cardiff 2010 Cycle

During the Summer of 2010 after completing our GCSE's, we are going to cycle from London's Twickenham Stadium, to Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, via Bristol whilst camping en route. We have chosen this route because we feel it will be a challenging experience and we are also keen rugby players. We will cycle with support from Christian's father, who will meet us at the end of each day's ride at designated camping sites. We will be cycling approximately 70miles each day for 3 days.

Laurie, Christian and James have played rugby in and out of school for the past 5 years; Laurie was even made Captain of the Upper Clapton U16's. Alex enjoys rugby also and he has played for the past 2 years whilst at school. He also enjoys tennis and cycling.

We are hoping to exceed £1500 for the Help for Heroes charity, which offers support to the families of service men and women who have been injured in recent conflicts. We chose this charity as many of the personnel are not much older than us. For more information about the Help for Heroes chairty, please click on the link below:
