My target 220 mi
This is a one-day challenge—but for many families, the challenge lasts a lifetime.
On June 28th, I’ll be riding 220 miles (350 km) from Manchester to London in a single day.
It’s a tough ride—physically and mentally. But it’s nothing compared to the daily challenges faced by autistic young people and their families.
I took up cycling later in life, and at 66, it’s become a real passion. Through that, I’ve also become more aware of neurodiversity—especially autism—and the importance of better understanding and support.
That’s why I’m supporting Ambitious about Autism, a charity providing vital education and services to young people and their families. Since this ride began, it has raised over £3.5 million and continues to grow each year.
Every rider taking part is aiming to raise £1,000—so that’s my target too.
If you’re able to support, any donation—big or small—will genuinely help and will keep me going when it gets tough.
Thank you.
