Here we go again! Men in tights 2, the London to Paris bicycle race in under 24hrs!

Here we go again! More tights, more exercise, no running though, this time on wheels..!

This June I'm racing to Paris,  RACING to Paris, in under 24hours on a bicycle and I'd like you all to help sponsor me.

A little here, a little there and we'll get to the target of £2k.

I'm going to document my training rides and hopefully provide you all with some highly enjoyable lycra clad stories of pain, glory and chafing.

I'm not doing this alone. I'm accompanied by some fantastic Google colleagues and we're aiming to fundraise £40,000, that Google will then match, to donate a total of £80K to thetDuchenne Childrens Trust who aim to find a cure in 10 years time, or less.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a wasting disease that leads to paralysis and death in all cases.

It's prevalent in male children and symptoms usually appear before the age of 6. Approximately one in 3,500 boys are born with DMD and I'd like your help with finding a cure.

Please sponsor me here, this is our Google team page and if you accompany your donation with my name I'll know it's come from you!

I've a few fundraisers to come but for the time being any direct donations will be warmly received.

Dig deep and push me to pedal to Paris for DMD.
