Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

If you have read this far then you will know by now this is not a joke, i am actually attempting to ride the 350 miles From London to Paris on a bike, and no it will not have an engine!

 

The sole aim is of course to raise money for charity, but for me it will also be a very good excuse to finaly get fit. I have put alot of time and invesment into my gut, and this is the perfect reason to lose it,

 

There is a long way mentally and physically to go before my jounry of destiny, and the first step is buying a bike and a pair of trainers, i have neither. Then the long road to getting fit, this will take months and i aim to start now. So any support in the way of donations to encourage me on this ridiculous but essentail trip will be very much appreciated.

 

I have chosen to ride for 'Meningitis UK' this is a national charity based in Bristol. The sole focus is prevention of the disease, funding lifesaving research to eradicate all forms of meningitis. Meningitis is a terrifying disease, which can kill in less than four hours, and tragically is most prevalent in children and young people; the symptoms are typical of a common cold or flu, and the true cause often goes undetected until it is too late.

Meningitis UK are currently running the ‘Search 4 a Vaccine’ Campaign, with a goal of £7,000,000 to fund research to develop a vaccine against Meningitis B and raise awareness of the common symptoms - quick action saves lives and i hope that my dontion can brig them closer towards there goal.

So please dig deep and donate now, as i assure you seeing me on a bike wearing lycra is a once in a life time experiance, and reason enough to donate.

 

With thanks,
