Le Cure 2022 done and dusted - but still open to sponsorship! I am absolutely shattered. On paper this year was supposed to be easier, the reality was it was tougher than ever, mostly due to the heat. Some very tired cyclists tonight, and so far over £312K raised for Le Cure. https://ift.tt/yWQsl5X

Another tough day’s cycling, scattered clouds in the morning, then scorching sun up the Col d’Izoard, pouring rain at the top and all the down into Briacon. I had to dig deep - so can you: https://ift.tt/XiuCtcp

Le Cure 2022 Day 2. A loong day in the blazing sun 🌞 A clear sky, 32°C, pretty draining 133km with 1950m of climbing. Amazing views again with km’s of apples orchards, all with a bunch of really dedicated people here to raise money for cancer research for The Royal Marsden. Making a difference with LeCure.org Still collecting sponsorship here: https://ift.tt/3I0dS7O

Le Cure 2022 Day 1 - 2048m of climbing, 102km, on a very hot day in Provence. Mont Ventoux is amazing. What’s more amazing is to watch cancer survivors, family of survivors, fat and thin fundraisers and fools like me cycle in the blazing sun up a mountain that regularly featured in the Tour de France to raise money.

Spello.

A not so quick 75km ride this morning as a last gasp training effort for this years Le Cure starting next week, but some good climbing, so not too bad. You still have time to sponsor me (go on, I know you want to). I’m not asking for money for my personal use but to help the 1/7 people who will get breast cancer. Le Cure is 100% volunteer run and all the costs of the tour are borne by the participants so that all the funds raised can be spent directly on research. Le Cure has achieved phenomenal results with previous donations and the impact of liquid biopsies which Le Cure researched is changing clinical practice worldwide. https://ift.tt/D496mZQ @lecuredefrance #charity #fundraising #breastcancerresearch

A friend pointed out that the link in my profile was to last years fund raising for @lecuredefrance, so it’s now updated, or you can find it below: https://ift.tt/94qALr7 11 days and counting!! #lecuredefrance #charity #fundraising

Le Cure 2022 - passed the 25% raised, but that means I'm still 75% short of my target. This year I will be riding with two cancer survvivors, one of whom was treated by the Royal Marsden. I will be 60 by the time this years Le Cure gets underway - so if you want to give me a birthday present - sponsor me here: https://ift.tt/94qALr7 @lecuredefrance #charityevent #fundraising #lecure #lecure22

With only 2-weeks to go until Le Cure 2022. I am asking you, once again, to choose Le Cure to support this year. In return I can promise that we will do the most wonderful work with your money. https://ift.tt/bgfcFRD Any amount that you can sponsor me is greatly appreciated. You never know when cancer may touch your world and if you have helped with valuable research and development that could make a difference need I say anymore. #lecure #lecuredefrance #fundraising #cancersucks
