Story
Welcome to my fundraising page!
I'll tell you briefly about my Charity Challenge and how you can help support me.
On the 10th October 2008 I begin my challenge in Cuba, alongside my good friend and fellow wine tasting buddy Sian, to cycle from the characteristic capital of Havana to the beautiful city of Trinidad on the Caribbean Sea some 350kms later. Phew!
The Cycle Challenge runs over 10 days, some days will be easier than others, but the whole event will still be a big challenge for me - especially getting Sian cycle fit

Fundraising
Myself and Sian have each made a personal contribution towards the cost of the expedition of £295. Sian has pledged to raise a minimum amount of £2500 in aid of British Heart Foundation (Registered Charity No. 225971). I have pledged to raise a minimum amount of £2500 in aid of NSPCC (Registered Charity No. 216401).
*Our target amount must reach the charities by end July 2008*
Over the next few months we will be hosting a number of exciting fundraising events, to help us achieve above and beyond our joint target of £5000! We will keep you well informed of any events and hope to see you all there!
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online, and a big "thank you" to those who have sponsored me in person (the old fashioned 'sponsorship form' way!)
*Don't forget, your donation goes direct to the charity bank account to be used immediately, so the sooner you sponsor the better!*
Many thanks for your support.

N.B.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: NSPCC 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.
