We're riding our bikes for Help for Heroes because we can. Many whom we hope to support don’t have the opportunity because of their devastating injuries. It’s for them we're riding.

We've loved cycling all our lives, but the longest we've cycled is 225km in the fantastic Dragon Ride in beautiful rugged Wales two years ago. This 300km one-day route in the Deluxe London Revolution Ultra Ride is going to be a very long, tough day in the saddle for both of us.

Yet the suffering on the road on Saturday 11th May will be nothing compared with those we hope to raise money for.

Imagine your life changing overnight. Suddenly, the world you knew is not accessible. You must start from scratch, all over again. This is happening right now. Every day, seven people leave the Armed Forces with life changing injuries. Many struggle, meaning they and their families need specialist help to aid recovery from wounds both visible and hidden. Your donation allows Help for Heroes to continue providing vital support, now and in the future.

Thank you for supporting us, Help for Heroes and all those who need them.
