Hello Everyone,

I recently biked 140 miles to raise much needed awareness and funds for Cystic Fibrosis.
I used an action cam to film the ride and produced a video with lots of information about CF and tributes sent to me from families of those with the condition.

I decided to do the event when I found out that my girlfriends nephew suffers from Cystic Fibrosis and I wanted to put my love of cycling to good use.
I have almost raised £1000

I planned to do my event March 4th but I sprained my ankle on March 3rd and had to wait out a while then I got flu. I tried again 2 weeks later and my bike was stolen from me which would have left me £400 out of pocket, thankfully Cystic Fibrosis Trust contacted Halfords... Who then gave me the same bike brand new for free!

Any donations you may give will be massively appreciated!

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Through determination, the desire for a cure. I want to push myself even further and go for 170-200 miles. I appreciate your comment RepBanditt, thank you!

I've decided that I am going to do another long distance ride next week! I really want to smash that £1000 target I set for myself. I'll once again post footage for you all to watch! I really appreciate all the kind comments and support. I'll do some bike maintenance today to get ready for it.

You should feel very proud of yourself

Man I don't think I could ride 1 mile never mind a 100!
