Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

You've guessed it I have been inspired by ET, Tour de France, Lance Armstrong and Chris Boardman (The cyclist on this occasion!).

I thought it would be a great opportunity in this Olympic year to get fit and raise some money for two charities that are close to my heart.....so I committed to completing the Manchester to Blackpool Bike Ride and asked for willing volunteers at work!

The Flying Squad was then born, twenty like minded souls getting fit for summer, raising money for charity and having fun along the way.

The event is 60 miles long and takes place on Sunday 8th July 2012 starting at Manchester United's Football ground and finishing at the South Promenade in Blackpool.

I really do appreciate any support you are able to give, no amount is too small, every single penny counts and will make a difference.

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 dig deep and donate now. Thank you

28 miles completed yesterday cycling to sunny Southport. Even had 2 punctures to practise on! Currently walking like Whoopi Goldberg in ghost / John Wayne but am sure will be fine! X
