Story

Dear Friends,

I will be participating in the Ride for Ceylon charity event again tomorrow.

The charity aims to rebuild lives and communities that have been devastated by decades of civil war. I will be riding in Sri Lanka from Batticalo to Jaffna (300KM) over a period of 3 days in order to help raise funds for this amazing charity.

I know most of you generously sponsored me on my last attempt on the 2020 ride , where I unfortunately didn't get to complete all 4 days as I broke my collarbone in an accident on the 3rd day.

My plan was to attempt the 2022 Ride for Ceylon event but due to an injury from playing football I had to undergo ACL/MCL surgery early last year.
Due to this I had to again miss the ride and with that the opportunity to take part in this marvellous event and the amazing opportunity to help those who need it most. I know what you must be thinking! I’ve not had much luck in the injury department!

Now I'm here again and determined to complete this ride in 2023 and touch the finishing line.

If you would like to sponsor me for this great cause which is very close to my heart then please click on the link below.

The Ride4Ceylon Team has its nucleus in a group of friends from St Thomas’ College in Colombo, Sri Lanka, now established among the Sri Lankan diaspora community overseas. Passionate to support their troubled homeland, and to give Sri Lankan children of tomorrow the opportunities they had enjoyed, the Old Boys – with other alumni, international friends and contacts – came up with the idea of a charity cycle ride from Colombo to Jaffna. The cycle ride recreates the sport, fun and bonding that marks the Old Boys’ connection, while also providing a visible means to attract support. Symbolically, by traversing the island from Colombo to the war-devastated north – it offers a journey of heart-rending beauty, healing and hope. The R4C2022 organising committee would like to thank the brand ambassadors Dan Norton, Jen Orr, Pia De Girolamo and Russel Arnold for their support. www.ride4ceylon.com
