I'm feeling really honoured to be selected to take part in this years Ziggurat challenge, helping raise money for Action Medical Research, a fantastic cause. To be able to do this on my bike cycling a tough challenging route - even better!

Action Medical Research are the leading UK charity dedicated to funding vital research to help sick and disabled babies, children and young people. Action have been funding medical breakthroughs for 70 years now and have helped to beat polio, fight meningitis, prevent stillbirths and develop ultrasound scanning in pregnancy. They are now driving forward children's research, including in the fight against premature birth and rare diseases.

Our 8th Annual cycling networking tour Ziggurat will see around 70 riders cycle 230 miles climbing 14,000 feet in the Swiss Jura Mountains on a fully supported 4 day ride for the construction industry.

By donating money for this incredible charity, you are helping to find ways to reduce premature birth, to support children facing a lifetime of challenges caused by disabilities, and to develop cutting-edge therapies for rare and incurable diseases. With your help we're determined to make a real change to children's lives.
