Welcome Message

When Matthew was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2008 we were given a small insight into the experiences of cancer patients in the UK and the work of the Royal Marsden. His rapid and caring treatment in the hands of Kingston Hospital and the Royal Marsden Hospital meant that just ten weeks after his initial diagnosis his treatment was complete and confirmed as a success.



We were very lucky.



Our milestone 10th Wedding Anniversay gave us the chance to do something memorable together and raise some money to make a difference to other people's lives.

And the west wind did blow

Just enough cloud cover to keep the temperature pleasant for riding and plenty of blue patches to make for beautiful views today, but you know it's bad news when you have to pedal hard down the hills. We headed west for 66 miles into a strong headwind skirting Salisbury Plain and on into Somerset.

A better day for photos today and some stunning landscapes - the payback for the climbs has been pretty spectacular. Here are a few tasters.

    Keep pedalling
