I'm riding the 980-mile cycling challenge from Land's End to John O'Groats this coming September to raise money for the Prince's Trust and the Buffalo Foundation, involving over 100 miles/6-7 hours+ a day for nine consecutive days. Even though I'm a keen cyclist, and have done several 100 mile rides, this will without doubt be the toughest challenge I have ever faced. What will keep me motivated both during my training and the actual ride is the thought that any money raised will go to two worthy causes, helping young and less fortunate people get a better start in life. Your support is really appreciated.
