Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am riding from Paris to London this week on a folding bike in aid of the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund. 

That said. Having ridden 500 kilometres on a folding bike last year I am somewhat regretting it now. Mainly as I was walking like a crab for about 2 months afterwards. 

I booked my place on this 'challenge' late at night after drinking wine basically.

The Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund help members of the RAF family deal with a wide range of issues: from childcare and relationship difficulties to injury and disability, and from financial hardship and debt to illness and bereavement. Any member of the RAF family can approach the fund for help, which includes serving and former members of the RAF, their partners and their families.

As a further incentive for you to sponsor me I'd like to make you an offer. If you do anything for charity in the next 12 months I will happily sponsor you the exact same amount you have sponsored me

Fingers crossed my friends and family are all as lazy as I think they are.

So basically you can't lose as you get your money back. 

I would dearly love you to sponsor me and it's for a very worthy cause.
