We care for all those affected by Behçet's to fight this rare and complex condition

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my page. 

I am raising money for a very small charity which is close to my heart.  Behçet’s is a rare, complex and lifelong condition; this charity helps with research into the cause, the effects looking at treatment and managing this extremely rare condition. 

The idea is that between the 17th July and the 17th October you just cycle 226 miles… works at around 18 miles a week, some of the team are running the distance so I think we’ve got the easy option 😊

Why the 17th October?

That would have been the date of the AGM for the charity so it seems a good idea to still recognise the day.

Why 226 Miles?

That’s the distance between the three Behçet’s Centre Of Excellence in Liverpool, Birmingham and London.
