Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.

In 2011, the Christie saved my life. My friend Wayne Hindle who was also fighting for his life never made it. I've never forgotten the laughs we had in that hospital. Never once did we talk about our plight such was the character he was. I miss him to this day. 

Every year recently I have lost family and friends to cancer. I do this ride in memory of them. I live with an attitude of gratitude.

The Christie are making great progress every day. All funds raised will go to the development of fighting cancer faster. Today they are saving lives that they couldn't 9 years ago. Imagine the progress with your help! Help me help them.

The Manchester to Blackpool bike ride is a 60 mile trek from Salford Quays. But I will be cycling to the start from my home in Bredbury. Cycling to Blackpool with Team Belle Vue Coaches, then cycling back home with a cousin and friend to Bredbury. It's a 140 mile round trip that gets tougher every year. But you can make it worth while with your donation.

Thank you for helping me and the Christie save lives. We appreciate every penny.
