Story

Mid September, myself and a good friend Rory Bennett will be attempting to cycle the length of Britain. A staggering 1000 miles in 9 days will see us leaving from Land’s End and ending in John O’Groats. This challenge is dedicated in loving memory of my aunt Juliet Bergqvist. The foundation helps research and investigate the links between epilepsy and mental health conditions with causes of death. It aims to identify and help those who maybe at risk. 

I loved my aunt dearly and I would be extremely grateful for any donation. It would mean to world to try and help those not suffer like Juliet did. 

I wish I could say this a luxury event but sadly it is quite the opposite. 8hrs on a saddle a day, challenging British terrains, questionable English weather combined with sleeping each in a tent each night. Sounds marvellous, can’t wait!
