Story

I am doing the Fred Whitton challenge again this year on Sunday 7th May 2023.After being timed out from completing the full event course 2 years ago,(set off too late)  I have unfinished business to get this done having recently turned 50 I am very determined and motivated.

 This years ride will double up as a memorial ride for Megan Law, aged just 11 years old, she suddenly passed away in March 2021, through an undiagnosed stomach condition which absolutely devastated her family. Since her passing Megans family have been involved with GUTS UK which is a charity who supports many people with various stomach/pancreatic conditions which many can be life threatening. Through donations this will help go towards research into finding out more about conditions and how to treat them..... 

Please consider donating to this charity , and I will do my best to get round the 110 miles of Cumbrian scenery, and do Megans family proud on the day...and hopefully (my partner) Megans nanna will have a filthy cream cake waiting for me at the finish.
