250 Miles – 5 Days – 1 Mission
Sponsor me as we cycle through the Death Valley Desert.... ...and help create a better future.
• 71 Countries have been contaminated” with mines since World War II
• 0.5 Million mines are laid every year
• Landmines cost from as little as £1.50
• Every 20 minutes a landmine claims a victim
• It will take 1,100 Years to clear mines already in place
Imagine stepping out of your front door and deciding you will walk to the shop today and get a newspaper. Then imagine having to plan your route avoiding grass verges and fields, imagine not being able to walk freely in your own town, for fear that you may stand on a landmine and be injured. For people who live areas where land mines are present this is a reality.

When I was in the Army I saw the impact landmines had on peoples lives. I have witnessed the reality of warfare and want to help people who’s lives have been wrecked by landmines. I have come close to being blown up by landmines myself in Bosnia in 1996 amongst a few!!

Having only just bought a bike,(hence no pictures of me on a bike) I have a big challenge ahead of myself, however getting fit is the least of it. Please help me raise £3,000 for this worth while charity.
Unless they let me use this one its going to be a hard slog!!
Thank you for your time.
