Koblenz 2025 will be O2e's 17th annual cycling challenge. Travelling down on coaches to the French coast riders will disembark to ride across Northern France and Belgium to a first overnight stop in Antwerp. Day two takes the group from Belgium, across the Netherlands and into Westphalia for a second night stop. Day three traverses through Germany, eventually reaching the Rhine and pedalling down to the confluence of the Rhine & Moselle rivers in Koblenz.

Once again I am asking everyone to support my efforts in the saddle and help to improve the lives of young people with disabilities and life limiting conditions.

This year I am probably the least prepared for this challenge and I promise you, it's going to hurt and I will not be in any kind of comfort zone, but to be honest, the lives of the people we are supporting are so much tougher than mine, every single day.

All of these charities are very dear to me, but this year I have become a Trustee of Caspa and have seen close up just how important their work is in helping children and young people with autism.

Please support me as I push myself out of my comfort zone to the finish line!

As always every penny raised will go straight to our five incredible charities and the children, young people and families they support.

This years nominated charities are:

Caspa, Freddie Farmer, Taylor Made Dreams St Elizabeth's, Elhap
