200 miles on Christmas Day

Morning all,

Hope it’s OK to post this here: finding ourselves in Tier 4, Mrs.H and I have been deprived of seeing family or mates Christmas Day, even for the bike-based present-delivering garden-only fly by we were planning. Mrs H having vetoed my perfectly reasonable plan that we should get stuck into the grog as soon as we awake, we thought we might be able to do a bit of good, so we’re going to try and ride 200 miles between us on Zwift on Christmas Day in aid of Toilet Twinning, a charity that builds latrines in developing countries.

25% of the world’s population doesn’t have access to latrine facilities, with consequences for human health and dignity, particularly for girls and women, that we in the west can only imagine. I know it’s been a hard year for everyone and I wouldn’t want to pressure anyone into donating if they can’t afford to, but if you happen to have a spare charity quid looking for a home – saved from Christmas dinner expenses, maybe? – we’d love it if you’d consider sponsoring us.We’re already up to four latrines, anything you can spare would be very gratefully accepted.

Thanks for reading and happy Christmas!
