Story
Sharpy and Paul are doing the Century Cycle Challenge on Saturday the 4th May. It is a 100 mile route around the Leicestershire & Rutland Countryside. This event has been going since 2006 and this will be our 4th time. Previous rides were from Neville Holt in Leics to Brancaster in Norfolk, which meant 50 odd miles of flat terrain across the Fens. This year no such luck it's all hilly.
We are raising funds for the Bone Cancer Research Trust.
Sharpy's daughter Ella was 11years old, when she was diagnosed with Bone Cancer in Nov 2008, unfortunately she did not survive. Bone cancer tends to affect young people aged 11-25years. The survivial rates for osteosarcoma have not improved in the past 20years, BCRT are the only organisation fund-raising for research to address this. I am hoping my fund raising efforts will help to improve the life chances and treatment options of other young people and adults affected by the disease.
