Unfortunately we have some bad news.

In October, Wesley, my Husband, father of our 3 children and GiveItSome’s tech and website developer, suffered a severe and life changing stroke.

He’s currently in Oxford undergoing therapy for Right side paralysis and loss of speech, he should be home mid February.

Our events will not run next year and to be honest, we probably won’t be in a position to run them the year after either. Especially as Wesley was the one who enjoyed running the events the most!

We hope you are able to enjoy other challenges in the year and keep finding the motivation to get out on your bikes. We’re already missing ours.

My friend has kindly set up a GoFundMe account to help with travel costs and extra therapy for Wez, so i’ll leave the link below if anyone is interested in having a look.

As many of you already know, on October 14th, Wesley suffered a massive stroke whilst enjoying a family day out with his wife and three children. Subsequently, he required a lifesaving Hemicraniectomy in Oxford, which is where half of the skull is removed to relieve swelling on the brain caused...

Just to add to the event information email - the weather looks a bit changeable so bring along waterproofs and a change of clothes for after! Anyone who has signed up today should receive their event email in the next few minutes. Good luck for tomorrow - cycle hard so you have plenty of excuse to indulge in some of our homemade cake at the finish :)
