Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

It is a good few years since I last took part in the Cheltenham Heart Foundation Charity Cycle and even more since I asked anyone for sponsorship, but this seems a fitting event to do in memory of Jemma, cycling buddy, daughter of Ed and Clare Rozier and sister to Natalie (all of whom are also cycling). It's an opportunity to raise money for research into heart problems in the hope that one day no-one young and energetic like Jemma has to lose their life.

These days 30 miles on the bike (with hills) seems a much bigger deal than it did 10 years ago, so rest assured this is going to hurt.

Some of you I will probably see in person, but for those who I may not, this is a really easy way to donate. Please help, I'd like to think we can raise a little and do some good, so making the pain in my bottom (and thighs, did I mention the hills?) worthwhile.
