I’m Pauline, and in March 2026 I’ll be leading an Edinburgh-based cycling team taking on Doddie’s Triple Crown: 800 miles from Melrose to Dublin in four days.

Cycling has been a huge part of my life for the last 10 years. It’s where I’ve found headspace, resilience, and some of my best friendships. Our crew are the kind of riders who roll out at 5:40am before most people’s alarms go off, and that early-morning discipline is exactly what this challenge demands.

I’ve already had the privilege of riding big charity miles, including the cycle from Murrayfield to the Principality Stadium in Wales. Stepping up now to help lead this team feels like the next chapter, and it means a lot.

We’re riding to support the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation and to honour the legacy of Doddie Weir, raising vital funds and awareness in the fight against MND.

Our route takes us from Melrose to Leeds, Leeds to Gloucester, across Wales to the Irish Sea for an overnight ferry to Rosslare, then on to Dublin.

Thank you for donating, sharing, or cheering us on. Every contribution genuinely makes a difference. 💛💚💙
