Please support my Ambitious Challenge!
I will be cycling 220 miles in a single day on Sunday 22 June 2025. Starting in Manchester and finishing in London,
Yes, I have done it before. But not in my sixties… …when I cannot tell if that creak is from the bikes bottom-bracket or my right knee.
But the point is…
Ambitious about Autism is the national charity standing with autisitc children and young people. They champion rights, campaign for change and create opportunities for autistic young people and their families.
I have seen this through the eyes of Simon Mottram (Rapha founder), who set up this challenge, and who has first-hand experience of what AAA does to help autistic young people and their families.
