I’m cycling from Pisa to Rome across hilly Italian terrain for Myeloma UK. Myeloma is an incurable blood cancer, which my Dad has suffered from since 2012. When he was diagnosed 11 years ago the outlook was pretty bleak, but I've seen first hand how funding for research and development can increase life expectancy of sufferers and hopefully one day they will find a cure.

The condition has had a profound affect on our family and with more funding and better drugs, my dad will benefit directly and we get to spend precious time with him. Your generosity really is priceless!

All proceeds go to the charity, not the cost of the ride.
