Tour de North West

My Big Ride

I've decided that it's time for me to do something that's been in my bucket list for a long time. I am cycling over 4200km as a personal challenge.

I've decided to help the Epilepsy Foundation make a huge difference for the 1 in 25 people whose lives are affected by epilepsy as I too was once epileptic.

I'm hoping that while I complete this project, you will show your support by making a donation.

Let's give those who are living with epilepsy the chance of a better life.

For those who don't know, I was one who lived with epilepsy for the better part of 40 years of my life. It was first detected back in 1969 after brain surgeries I had. 

I can tell you from experience, the seizures can vary from short 30 seconds to, in my case, an hour or so. Most of mine were petit mal seizures but I did have at least 3 that I can still recall where I went fully unconscious. 

However, I was a lucky one to have mine completely defeated. 

Times were hard for me back when I was in my 20's. That was when I decided to do this challenge. Back then I wanted to cycle the Alaska Highway. But now, I am aiming to cycle from Anchorage Alaska to Dawson City Yukon via Fairbanks and possibly up to the Arctic Circle on the Dempster Highway and then down to Victoria BC via Dawson Creek(Mile 0 of the Alaska Highway). 

I will be posting updates as I do the journey. 

Any support you can give will be muchly appreciated as it is going to a cause I believe needs more assistance.

Thank you for your time.
