I'm cycling miles to change young lives from Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle

On Sunday 5 October, I will be taking part in Palace to Palace and cycling 45 miles from Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle and raising fund for the King’s Trust.

The King's Trust has tailored programmes and provides long-term support give young people the practical skills and emotional resilience to pick themselves back up and create their own positive futures.

Following a cost of living crisis and pandemic which impacted their education, early careers and wellbeing, there are now almost 1 million young people not currently in work, education or training. 

Please help me to support The King's Trust by sponsoring my Palace to Palace cycle ride and sharing my page. Just a £20 donation could provide one young person with an inspiring two hours of work experience in a stable job in a thriving sector

Gold Cycling Jersey

Thank you for all the support so far. I have now qualified for a limited edition cycling jersey. I've been struck down by yet another bug this week, but I am about to get on my bike again to see how it goes.

Making the most of the nice weather

Saturday 30th Aug
Near Beaulieu, New Forest

I'm back in the saddle.

Thursday 28th Aug
I had a bit of a setback in the form of a virus, but I managed to get out before work this morning for a 14.4 mile ride. I even managed to avoid the rain. The plan is to get at least one long ride in before the big day. My knees are just about holding up.

Increasing distance

Saturday 9th Aug
Starting to increase the distance as we get closer to the big day. Hoping my right knee continues to cope! For the rest of today and tomorrow I will be turning my attention to a 30 hour ukulele jam to raise money for local charities in Southampton. My attention will be back on this next week.

Work in progress

Thursday 7th Aug
It's been many, many years since I cycled anywhere near 45 miles. Trying to get a few longer rides in before the big day. I only have my commuter bike, but it will do :-)
