Hey,

I’m posting this in here to help get exposure for the fundraising :~)

I’m cycling from Land’s End to John O’Groats solo when I get back to the UK in the summer. Late last year I did London-Glasgow on a track bike which was about 400 miles - this will be almost 1000 miles (but will be on a road bike). I’m going to do it on my own over the span of about two weeks and will be sleeping out in the wild or at friends’ places. I’m hoping for a lack of rain and head winds so well-wishes are appreciated. Any tips would be cool too!

I’ve chosen to raise some money for Rape Crisis which is a UK-based charity supporting survivors and raising awareness. I felt it was important to use the trip to do something positive for those who need support in our community. I’ve set a target of £1000 which equates to roughly £1 per mile - so if you want do donate then think of it as how many miles you want do sponsor me for. The response has been awesome as there has been just over £100 raised so far. Don’t worry if you can’t give much (even just £1 is fab) - supportive words are pretty good too!

If you could help me spread the message of my fund-raising that would be awesome.

Thank you for reading! :+)

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
