By donating, you are ensuring that I will undergo significant pain for a good cause.

Thanks to a terrible choice in friends, an underactive intelligence and an inability to say no, I have allowed myself to be coerced into riding from Manchester to London in a single day (22 June 2025).

This is the equivalent of 220 miles, or in cycling terms 354.056 km. That sounds horrible. And it will be. In order that this isn't a pointless act of self-sacrifice and futility, I shall be raising funds for "Ambitious about Autism."

Ambitious about Autism is the national charity standing with autistic children and young people. They champion rights, campaign for change and create opportunities for autistic young people and their families.

In short, they are jolly good eggs, and they deserve your hard earned cash. Lots of it. So don't be stingy, and just think, the more I raise, the less likely it is that I can wimp out.

It's win win - your cash is guaranteeing better outcomes for autistic young people and their fams, and worse outcomes for my leggsies and sit-bones.

Make sure any comments you leave with donations are suitably horrid.

I'm motivated by your curses!

Fanks, peace and love.C x x x x x x x

Gift Aid I confirm I am a UK taxpayer and understand if I pay less income tax and/or capital gains in the current year than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on my donations, it's my responsibility to pay the difference. I would like Ambitious about Autism to treat future donations and any in the past 4 years as gift aid donations, until I notify you.
