In 2007 I took part in Enduro Africa, an amazing and eventful fund and awareness ride in South Africa supporting charity Riders for Health.

And, well...20 years later I'm back for more!

Last time, I fractured a number of bones including my neck in two places, broke my collar bone and stripped my arm off the shoulder - Tis but a scratch; I completed the event..

This time I'm taking part in Ride The Gambia 2027, run by fundraising organisation Two Wheels for Life, official charity of MotoGP™ and the FIM.

The ride will raise funds for the same Riders for Health transport for healthcare programmes that significantly reduce disease growth, curb sudden outbreaks of disease and reduce maternal and infant mortality.

In the past I worked with Riders on the all terrain vehicle (ATV) units for The Gambia's safe motherhood programme, which saved many thousands of lives and is my proudest achievement; alongside raising money with numerous events.

This time I'm asking for donations which will fund vital motorcycle training for health professionals in four African countries, The Gambia, Malawi, Lesotho and Nigeria. Training is vital to ensure nurses and community health workers, people who never imagined themselves on a motorcycle, can ride safely day-in day-out, as they use their motorcycle to reach the most remote and hard to reach communities with life-saving care.

Individual donations and company sponsorship will also come with the opportunity to appear on my riding kit. With regular updates and images provided. Contact me directly for further details if required.

Every penny you donate goes direct to the charity.

So please give what you can and support my latest adventure. I'm so proud to be doing more to support this organisation, that does such good and means so much to me. And as I always say, what could possibly go wrong!

AJS.

Two Wheels for life. Official charity of MotoGP™ and the FIM.

Raising money in the world of motorcycles to fund transport for healthcare programmes in Africa.

The programmes we support operate in four African countries. Delivered by Riders for Health (Riders) , their unique systems ensure motorcycles and other vehicles run reliably day in, day out. This means health workers can reliably get out to villages to care for babies, children and the elderly, and test results can be taken to labs and returned swiftly for quick diagnosis of diseases.
