In June I will be riding in Legal and General’s PedElle cycle challenge. Over three days, we will journey from Siena to Rome through the hilly Tuscan countryside, covering a total of 400km and 5.2km of elevation.
I began cycling a year ago and just as quickly as my bike had arrived, it was back in the workshop for some TLC after I spectacularly crashed out of the IAS cycle at mile 10. Luckily that didn’t stop me getting back in the saddle, and I have since been on adventures to Brighton and Paris, and in the Pyrenees.
Forgetting the Italian heat in June, the 1.5-2km of elevation gain per day, and the awkward bib short tan lines, this is undoubtedly going to be an amazing experience. I am fortunate that SEGRO have funded my entry costs, and therefore all of the money raised will go directly to the four charities we are supporting:
Coram is the UK’s oldest children’s charity, which every year transforms the lives of thousands of vulnerable children by building emotional strength, upholding children’s rights, and finding a permanent family and home for those in the greatest need.
Cyclists Fighting Cancer helps young people living with and beyond cancer in the UK by helping them regain their physical fitness, strength and confidence through cycling.
Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) Trusts’ vision is to find the cause and cure for MSA.
Tom’s Trust delivers educational and vocational training opportunities to disadvantaged young people in London. They also help to tackle to root causes of violent gang culture and violent street crime.
Thank you for your support!
