Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

KTBC member Bryan Lear & his wife Karen tragically lost their
beautiful boy Harvey in 2011, we have undertaken a number of cycling challenges to raise money in his name for local children’s charities annually ever since.
This has led us to be closely connected to a fantastic charity called
KEEPTHEBEAT. This charity was founded by another Rider, Adam Tansey & his wife Annita, to assist families affected by childhood congenital heart defects. We have seen, through the fundraising, the excellent work KeepTheBeat are doing to not only provide lifesaving equipment but to also assist families through their difficult times.

This year we are undertaking the Run2theSun. This is to ride 300 miles from Burbage in Leicestershire to Watergate Bay in Cornwall on July 2.
This on its own would be a significant challenge but we have decided to do it as close to 24 hours as is possible and will involve cycling through the night and stopping only to eat and drink. We have 30 riders signed up to what is our biggest challenge yet and we would be extremely grateful for any support you can give.  If I can't finish it all, I'll give it a damn good go!
