Story

In 2011 I climbed 3 volcanoes in Guatemala. In 2014 I cycled around a volcano, paddle across its collapsed centre & climbed the volcano on the other side. Both damn near killed me. In April 2016 I have agreed in a moment of stupidity to cycle from London to Paris in April. All this is in support of the EFTC foundation, which runs the fantastic 'school of hope' in Antigua, Guatemala (central America). This is a Nottingham based charity that is small, friendly and sustainable. Overheads are kept to a minimum - Boo works for them on minimal wage by choice! I guarantee that this is my swan-song and I will not ask again for sponsorship. So I would like to go out on top (and intact!). I will personally fund all of the overheads for this challenge so that every penny donated goes to the charity. The cause is really worthwhile. Anyone who goes to visit the school in Guatemala is  hooked. Many thanks to anyone who sponsors me and don't forget the gift aid.
