I'm taking part in the Prudential RideLondon-100 for the fantastic charity which is Kidney Research UK in support of my friend & work colleague Brenden Stack's daughter who is battling this disease that has no cure.

She has had this condition for a few years and has been on various medications to get this condition under control that she will be on for the rest of her life.

She has already undergone surgery to remove one of her kidneys due to this disease and the likelihood of her other kidney failing and dialysis in the future is inevitable, so it is vital that we raise as much awareness (and money) as possible for this good cause to strive towards better ways to treat this disease and ultimately cure it.

Any donation big or small would be much appreciated, and as you know with my fitness levels this will be quite a challenge.

Thank you!
