Begging post.

So I've signed up to cycle 100 miles in August to raise money for Prostate cancer. I lost my Dad to it a few years ago so I always try to give to them. I know 100 miles is not much to a few of you but with the angle grinder damage it's a lot to me!

Please give what you can, even if it's a quid.

Done. I expect a daily, handwritten update on high quality paper and beautifully calligraphied in epic poem format.

I get the point of trying to negotiate, but I think you're starting way too low.

Cheers, I'm hoping it will get me started and keep doing it as working from home isn't doing my waistline any favours!
