Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Around 18 months ago, I started cycling to help my fitness and try to lose a bit of weight. I casually told Mum and Dad that I would like to enter some charity bike rides. Just before Christmas my Mum, who as a youngster was a keen cyclist, passed away. I never knew, but at church she had pledged to be "more charitable". Time to deliver on the 'promise' and try to raise a few pounds for charity. So, Chris and I have entered our first charity ride together with my friend Steve Boon, a seasoned cyclist to  help us get round. The event is the http://www.peterborough5x5challenge.org/ and we have selected the 50 mile route to have a go at.

I am not sure what to expect, but will give it my best. If 25 of my friends sponsor me for say £2 that would be absolutely fantastic.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please will you sponsor me?
