Please help me smash my goal of £10000 to raise as much money for Reach as I can. I will be taking on just under 900 miles over 3 days and hope to achieve it in around 65 hours. I will be starting on Saturday 22nd September. I have been training hard virtually and on the roads throughout winter. Follow me on Strava to see my training in progress. Search Andy Swain (Rode Cycles).’
