My foolhardy chum Skipjack is booked to do a charity fund raising event. The fool is attempting to cycle from Zeebrugge to Rotterdam in one day. A distance of just under 100 miles to raise money for a hospice in Hull.

He is going to have to go some to complete it. We know as Myself,Mrs V and the young raiders did three quarters of that journey ourselves this summer going the opposite direction. He is likely to face strong winds in the face and possibly rain. He and a friend (he has one other as well as me)will start cycling on Saturday 20th September at about 08.30, and hopefully reach the Europort at Rotterdam before the departure time of 21.00hrs that evening.

He would not ask for himself, and doesn't know I'm putting this thread up, but if you feel you can support his efforts for a worthwhile cause in any way, financially (by sponsorship)or by giving him your best wishes, please do so. If you are in any of the areas. Hull, Zeebrugge,Breskens, Vlissingen or along the Westerschelder dam etc. Give him a wave as he goes by.

Thankyou.

Eric
