Story

I'm taking on the Tour De France route travelling from Leeds to Harrogate the long way!!  Take a look at it here http://letour.yorkshire.com/stage-1 and I'm petrified! I've never ever taken on anything like this and I have no idea how I'm going to do it! I will try and update this page with videos of practice runs and pictures as I prepare for this. 

Right now cycling 10 miles from my house to Bradford up a hill is pretty hard and I'm going to do 12 times that in one day and I 3 months to do it. CAP is the reason I'm doing this, a free debt counselling charity that is changing peoples lives. We go into peoples homes and take all their bills, no longer do they fear the bailiffs or use their home as prison. Most of the people who CAP help never go into debt again we change peoples lives and not a penny of the money you give goes to paying their debts. We battle with the big lenders like Wonga and stop them bullying our clients into a spiral of ever growing debt by cutting interest rates and fighting the courts.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE just give all you can and help me reach my target of £1000 nothing else will motivate me to train more than seeing people give money to this amazing charity.
