Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I will be riding 100 miles to raise money for UK Diabetes in the Prudential Ride London-Surrey on 29th July and in addition to this, I will also be cycling 175 miles from London to Paris in 24 hrs on 14th September for the same great cause.  ( sucker for punishment ).

 Having being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 10 yrs ago, I have  full respect for people who are  living with diabetes with either Type 1 or Type 2  and how it can have a direct impact for people on a day to day basis and ongoing problems for their general health and even loss of life..   Riding for this worth while cause I hope to complete both events and raise awareness for this ever growing problem in the UK and World alike.

I will be keeping up the training for these events and will try to do justice for this great cause and your kind donations!

Update:  Training accident,  see my post below🚑.
