    My son is going to cycle from Leeds to Birlin to raise money for Sense. If any body would like to help hom raise some money I would be grateful either by giving a donation or tweeting this link. Thanks lads and lasses in advance.

    That's a larger distance than travelled by tour de France riders during the first six stages.

    Well worth a donation.

    This lad needs some help from us not sure where the money is going but, I imagine it'll benefit kids from both sides of the divide so dig deep or as deep as you can much appreciated.
    You may now continue to wind each other up <ok>

    Hi Mate,
    Sorry just seen this.
    I noticed your thread so have stickied it for a bit and also tweaked the title to emphasise the charity element.
    Hopefully one or two of our ladies and gents will be able to find a few quid to spare.
    All the best pal.

    Some facts and figures for you

    600 miles in 8 days

    51 riders

    Total target £20,000 for the whole team

    £350 for each rider

    Matthew is in 13 th place just now so not bad but let's get him into a Champions League place.

    Once again thanks for all your help up to now.

    If you are on Facebook or twitter please spread the word
