Story

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page for the ten by ten motorcycle challenge. Please dig deep and sponsor us online.

We have now successfully completed our challenge in a time of 9hrs 53mins. Despite the weather throwing everything at us from squally rain to high winds we made it within the 10 hours.

We visited Edinburgh/Glasgow/Stirling/Dunblane/Perth/Dundee/Aberdeen/Elgin/Inverness/Dunfermline.

We travelled 460 miles and had a great time. Very exhausting and sore but well worth it.

All funds raised will help to establish a Red Cross Fire and emergency support service in Edinburgh and the Lothians. It will help families who have had to evacuate their homes due to fire, flooding or provide support in other circumstances such as a road accident. The service will provide first aid, shelter, emotional care and comfort, food, shower facilities and a toilet, information about social services, a camera to take photos for insurance purposes and somewhere to gather thoughts

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: British Red Cross 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.

Many thanks for your support.
