Story
I am a passionate cyclist but, more importantly, this year I have been exposed more than ever to the stories of people suffering with cancer through family, friends and colleagues.
I've wanted to do this ride for several years but the death of a colleague at Audio Network this year from cancer and the diagnosis of another with leukaemia has really galvanised my efforts and driven me to take part with Audio Network also wanting to support this amazing cause in memory of Graham and in hope of Simon's continued recovery.
I'm also riding in support of family and friends who are currently suffering or have suffered.
Please donate and I really appreciate your support. All the money raised goes directly to the charity and I have separately paid all the logistical costs of the ride.
My target is £2000+ so please give as much as you can!
