Original Appeal
Neil Croughton is going to ride his bike from John O' Groats to Land's End in aid of Cancer Research UK. Neil's challenge will take place in August 2010 where he is going to ride end to end, solo and unsupported which means carrying all his own equipment. The chosen route will generally follow the CTC's (Cyclists' Touring Club) scenic route, therefore the route with more hills which is mainly on minor and B roads. The route is just over 1000 miles and it is expected to take 10 to 14 days, the duration of which he will spend camping and staying in Youth Hostels.
To support Neil, The Pixel Advertising Shop has created a special a Cancer Research UK grid at the top of our half a million dollar homepage.
100% of the money raised from the purchase of pixels bought in the special Cancer Research UK grid will be donated to Cancer Research UK. The pixels have been priced the same as the main pixel grid of $0.50 per pixel and will last for 5 years as well.
You can also sponsor Neil on his JustGiving website.
