Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have decided to take part in 3 days of a 10 day bike ride in aid of orphans in Nepal. My section covers nearly  200 miles with a ride from Doncaster to Chesterfield on day 1 of 57 miles, Chesterfield to Buxton on day 2 of 66 miles and Buxton to Nottingham day 3 of 67 miles. 

Some of the younger participants are doing the whole 10 days and 585 miles but at the ripe old age of 57 I am not sure that my body is up to that much punishment!

I am hoping to raise £ 800 and I would be grateful for any donation that you are able to offer. I realise that there are many calls on your hard earned money but any amount would be a great help. I will be posting regular tweets on how my training is going with some pictures so the faint hearted among you may want to skip the pictures of the sweaty old guy!
