Hello there.

I couldn't make it to the play off finals as i was up in the lake district training for the 3 peaks challenge which myself and 5 friends are undertaking at the end of July to raise funds for the Anthony Nolan Trust.
Basically we have to climb Ben Nevis - highest mountain in Scotland, Scafell Pike - highest in England and Snowdon - highest in Wales; all within 24 hours including travel between the mountains.

If you'd like to find out more about this please go to:

And if you feel that you'd like to sponsor me for this event or find out more about this very good cause please go to:

I think the charity is important enough that I'm doing 3 lots of 2 hours a week at the gym to get ready for the challenge!

Thanks for reading.

Colin.

In an effort to get more sponsorship for the Three peaks which we are doing in 2 weeks time I will be shaving my beard off on Sunday.

Will be a bit odd as I haven't shaved for quite a few years.

But it's all for a very good cause.

if you'd like to show your support by sponsoring me, please go to:

Thank you.

Colin (aka biker)

Hello all!

Well I did it - all three mountains in 23 hours and 29 mins.

It was VERY hard, but I managed it somehow.

Thank you to all for their support.

Colin.

Well done Colin.... sounds like a gruesome event. I'm looking forward to the new reduced, lean, mean version of Biker when we see you at Ryde!
