Story

Holly and I have accepted a challenge to endure the harsh Arctic Circle while riding and pushing a sled pulled by a pack of husky dogs in April of 2014.  Seven days... 14 hours per day endurance covering 250km from Norway to Sweden. 

We will be sledding from Tromsø in northern Norway crossing the Swedish bordor and finishing in a town called Jukkasjärvi.  This will be over mountains and across ice lakes spending each night camping in temperatures that drop to below -20oC!

We want to help rasie money so the Alzheimer's Society can continue their research in finding a cure and in supporting the families in which demetia effects.

1 in every 3 people over 65 will die with dementia.

So please dig deep and donate now.
