Hello All,

I come cap in hand to ask you all to please sponsor me!

www.justgiving.com/sean-kielty/

A couple of months ago, a work friend of mine's son, Pat, a serving Paratrooper, was on foot patrol in Afghanistan. He had an encounter with an Improvised Explosive Device (IED). The bomb only partially detonated but was still strong enough to cause the loss of one of Pat's legs.

Pat is a big Rugby fan so many of his friends and friends of his parents are cycling from Bullingdon Prison in Oxfordshire to the Prison Service Rugby Festival in Coventry - a distance of around 50 miles - this Wednesday 27 April 2011. We're doing this to help raise funds for the Afghanistan Trust and also directly for Pat and his family to help pay for the necessary alterations to their homes.

I haven't been on a bike for a very long time but the discomfort I'll experience will be nothing compared to what some of our fantastic service men and women are going through.

Please sponsor me and help these brave people. It doesn't matter how much you give, just that you do give! If you're a UK tax-payer, don't forget to agree to Gift Aid too as we get even more for each pound you donate!

If you're on any of the social network sites, please let your friends know and encourage them to visit too!

My donation page stays active for at least 3 months after the event.

Thank you all in advance.

Sean

A number of service members from my area have been killed over there. We could have and should have ended that war at Tora Bora.

Well, I've had a couple of people very generously donate so far - many thanks, you know who you are! Anyone else around who can spare a £1 or two? Sean

I rode a bike once or twice

Once, down the hill and up the steps of the Capitol cinema - not on purpose either!

The next time going down that hill I missed the steps but couldn't make the corner afterwards and went straight into the wall.

Don't worry, I don't drive a car

Well, I made it!

And I think I'm alive, although there is a distinct possibility that my legs and nether-regions are broken beyond repair!

A total distance of 51.27 miles and a total ride time of 4 hours 11 minutes.

We believe so far that we have raised somewhere around £8000-£9000.

Thanks to those that have donated and if anyone still wants to, you haven't missed the boat! The donation page is still open for 3 more months!
