Hello my name is Nicholas thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Due to financial,personal and health reasons i cant physically ride from john, O Groats to lands end but i'm determined not to let any one down so i'm still going ahead with the ride but i going to do it indoors at my local fitness first gym, the miles will be verified by a member of staff, rember this is a over a thousand mile ride so even though i'm doing it in doors its going to be very tough and i'm going to need your support please help me get at least £1 a mile , thank you
I’m planning to ride from John O,groats to Lands End this is a 838 mile ride. I hope to complete this ride within 14 days.the event will take place on july 1st 2012
I’m aiming to raise £100,000 so it’s going to take a lot of hard work so if its possible for you to help it would make a huge difference to my fundraising goal and to the men and women of the armed forces that risk there lives every day, ordinary people like me and you some left with life long injures.
Last year my cousin was in a near fatal car accident and broke nearly all of the bones in his body, he was sent to Queen Elizabeth hospital in Selly oak. While he was there he spent some time next to the ward where they treat injured soldiers, while visiting my cousin I meet and spoke to a few of the soldiers and there stories and positive attitudes even after there ordeal really touched my hart also my aunt works at the hospital and often tells me heroic stories some of soldiers have told her.
I don’t have the courage or the guts of the men and women that risk there lives every day for our country, but this doesn’t mean I cant do my bit to help, I’m fit an active and enjoy a challenge, this is something i have thought about for a while and to achieve this would be a dream come true and a great sense of pride to know I have done my bit.
