Story

This August I'm cycling 435miles over 4 days to complete a lap of Anglia. As any amateur cyclist will tell you a 100 mile day is considered a big ride so 4 of them in a row is a challenge. The ride takes the scenic route of Norwich-Ipswich-Luton-King's Lynn-Norwich. Fortunately I won't be on my own but will be with a group of 70 riders all raising money for the East Anglian Air Ambulance (EAAA).

East Anglian Air Ambulance (EAAA) is a 365-day-a-year helicopter emergency medical service (HEMS) covering Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk & Suffolk. They exist to save lives by delivering highly skilled doctors and critical care paramedics by air to seriously ill or injured people in the region. They do not receive regular direct government funding and the £17 million we need to raise this year comes directly from charitable donations. They are only kept airborne thanks to our incredible supporters. Thank you.
