( This is a copy email that i sent to the guys from Emmerdale that i will be riding with next week. We are riding from The Emmerdale set in Leeds to the Eastenders set in London. 224miles in 24 hours through the night to raise £100,000 for Macmillan. This was sent to them on Wednesday morning) Morning all. As you may or may not know today i had my pre opp app at the hospital, it was followed by a whirlwind of emotions and feelings. Basically i met with the surgeon who a couple of weRead More....

I’ve been asked once or twice if there is anybody I would be dedicating the ride to, of course!!! there’s a lot of people that have played a part in this all coming together and that ranges from people helping with products, websites and support right through to just liking my status on FB, These are really as valuable as each other, in many ways the words and thoughts are worth more that anything. The thing is I don’t need to thank all of the people that have helped make this happen, Read More....

As I left the van this morning I felt like I was saying good bye to someone special, we wouldn't be sleeping in the van tonight it was time to clean it out and move on. Today would be the last time Jonny would see me out the door and on my way, it really felt strange, kind of like when you go on holiday you use up all the food and try to get rid of as much as you can but we weren't coming back after a couple of weeks we wouldn’t be staying here again. Even though we both cant wait to see the bRead More....

Last night was a strange one!! as we were finding somewhere to park for the night we came across a pub called “The English Pub”. I can safely say I’ve never seen Jonny do a u-turn so quickly, especially not in a 31ft RV, he was even quicker than when the AC met the canopy. (which of course both mine and Jonnys fault even though he’s driving!!!) As we walked in the pub there was a mass of English football club shirt around the place, we were asked for i.d to the which the bar man says,Read More....

I wrote this yesterday as i worked my way around London... Its been a really good day and got some pretty good feed back but it strange because I’m actually really scared of where this is going now, will I be able to carry on doing the things I have been, how can I make a living from here.. Don't get me wrong its not about the money I’m not looking to be a millionaire or anything although that would be nice, I just want to pay my bills and keep helping people, keep raising money, keeRead More....

Quick note & Something I wrote Just wanted to drop a quick note to kind of let everyone know whats been going on, say thank you and also apologies for not getting all the blogs, photos and updates back you yet. Since coming home I’ve been going through a wide range of emotions and of course the dreaded jet lag which at first i thought I had dealt with really well but apparently not. You've all been a fantastic support, you've all really helped me keep going and get me to where I wanRead More....

Today didn’t start off the way I would of hoped, I still didn’t feel good and I didn’t sleep well, my head was spinning for most the night again. I don’t think it helps that were both getting tired of the RV now, together as a team were getting on better than I could ever of imagined, its just worked really very well, I mean when you spend this much time with someone you expect to have the odd word but theres been nothing apart from the odd dig about the AC, Its starting to get hotter anRead More....

Yesterday I posted a blog explaining that I had found out that a very good friends mother had past due to terminal cancer, she really was a very fine lady, amazing woman, in fact it was an honor to say you know her. So I decided today was for her but I’m sorry to say I couldn’t give her the day I wanted to. I wanted to be seeing near the late hundreds in miles and late 20’s MPH average but I just couldn’t pull it out the bag, my head was in a spin and I wasn’t riding right or well, Read More....

When I sat down to write yesterdays blog I was buzzing, it was another good one, it wasn't quite what I’d had the day before but none the less it was still good day. I’d decided to take it easy and see what happened, I didn’t want to push to had but still saw a 21MPH average over the day. I’d got a lot more I wanted to tell you about but when I opened the laptop to load it up this morning I had a message for a great guy and really good friend but it wasn't the kind of message you lookRead More....

Im sitting here in the van trying to write todays blog and I’m really struggling, I’ve actually started writing it three time nows, I’m not struggling because I don’t have anything to say, its not because I’ve had a bad day and its not because I haven't though about anything id like to talk about whilst riding... Its just been an absolutely amazing day and I’m not sure how I can express how good it has been. The minute I stood over the cross bar I knew and felt like everything waRead More....
