Story

This year, I'm raising money for Christians Against Poverty, a national debt counselling charity that offers hope and a solution to anyone who is in debt.

To help me do this, I'll be riding in the Etape du Dales along with Tim Green and Dave Warden. This is a 112 mile cycle ride around the Yorkshire Dales. It takes in some major climbs and is the biggest challenge that I have ever attempted on a bike!
