Jane was diagnosed with cancer in 2000 and given 6 months to live. Since then she has raised over 1.5 million towards cancer charities, for research and patient care. Her most recent achievement was to complete a cycle ride Coast to Cost across America.

Our route will take us through the foothills of the Pyrenees and we'll be spending 6 long days in the saddle to cover the 400 miles to the Mediterranean.

We are now just days away from the ride and (including gift aid) have already reached our fundraising target of £25,000.

Please continue to dig deep and sponsor us online, anything you can donate will be very gratefully received.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Jane's Appeal will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many many thanks for your support and we'll keep you updated on our progress on the run in to the event.

Regards

the Metro Life Cycle - Spanish Coast to Coast Team - April 2007.
