Story

Hello people, 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Last year I decided after personally losing too many and seeing so many friends lose thier friends & family from their mental health struggles far too early, I was going to do a some form of charity ride before I turn 40, for a mental health charity, for everyone that will never make it to 40. Well I'm 40 near the end of October, so here we are! 

I have my own personal struggles with acute anxiety and depression to name a couple and my beautiful girlfriend of 10 years has BPD. But I am doing this for the missing souls not us! 

I had wanted to do something this August but I fractured the radial head of my right elbow in May, which put me out for 8 weeks. Soooo that makes this ride even harder with less training time!

85 miles each way minimum along National Cycle Route 66.  Which passes where I live in Derbyshire allllll the way to the end in Hull! I shall stay the night there kindly donated by "SIMPLY CAMPERVAN CONVERSIONS" please check them out on YouTube, then ride home the following day. I may come home a slightly different route to change it up, but we shall see how I feel and the weather of course.

If this one goes well I may even do another on a different route. 

Thank you very for taking the time to read this, even if you cannot donate, PLEASE give this page a share or any of the social media pages, the more people see this the more potential we have. 

Take care everyone,

Joe.

PS,

Please join my Social media pages because I will probably do more fundraisers in the future.
