Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 6th September I, and over 750 other nutters, start the 9 days of cycling that will us travel the 970-odd miles from Land's End to John O'Groats with overnight sleeping in tents.

The challenge is the final stage of my journey that started on a turbo trainer in the sitting room in front of the telly at the start of the year and has continued around the hills of Hampshire and beyond in the evenings and weekends since.

Details of the challenge are to be found here: http://www.rideacrossbritain.com/what-is-deloitte-rab/

I’m undertaking the challenge in aid of Arthritis Research UK. Most of us have friends or family who have been affected by the disease and many of us will be marked by it at some time in our lives.
 
My aim is to raise £2,500 (something approaching the financial cost to myself) in an effort to make it worthwhile and ease my conscience at having spent that much!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

If you wish to contribute via PayPal, I recommend my other site https://www.givey.com/xcsckdvsfp as this appears to pass 100% on to the charity. If you don't wish to use PayPal then use this site as it seems to be the best in that case.
