This is the original Home page explaining both the reason for the adventure and the fundraising activities undertaken

Even though I console myself with ensuring that anything that can be done for my Mum is done I have always wondered whether any good could come out of the situation. I have therefore decided to take part in the Alzheimer's Society's London to Paris Cycle Ride to raise money for the continued good work of the Alzheimer's Sociey and to raise awareness of the issues surrounding the disease and the support needed by the elderly generally. Luckily my colleague, Lucy Beck, has agreed to join me in this adventure!

I have learnt from a difficult family situation with my Mum that life is for living. We need to have a balance in our lives. We also need to enjoy life and take the opportunities that come our way as you never know what life has in store for us.

So whilst Lucy and I take the pain of preparing for and undertaking the 320 mile cycle ride over 4 consecutive days, we have created FOUR opportunities for you to have some fun and support our fundraising at the same time. Even if you cannot attend one of our events we would be very grateful for your support as, of course, will be the millions throughout the World who suffer from this dreadful disease.
