Remember we’ll do the 185 miles to Brighton, all you have to do is donate the money.....

This annual bike ride was set up in the memory of Mr Bijay Khela, who passed away in 2009 at the age of 41 after 4 year battle with cancer. He tackled his illness with tremendous courage, unwavering humour and an optimism that has become a lifelong inspiration to us all. the money raised over the 2 previous bike rides enabled us to by equipment for a local hospital in Wolverhampton that had treated and cared for Bijay. We also donated money to Macmillan nurses and the Promise Dreams charity that that helps seriously and terminally ill children fulfil their wishes. We also through the India Housing Project helped build new homes for 30 of the poorest families in India giving them safe and secure accommodation and in 2011 we also supported the ms society, cancer research and nspcc, we have raised over £60000 with the support of freinds, family and punjabi wolves of wich bijay was a member.

This year we will be cycling from wolves to brighton, 185 miles over may bank holiday weekend and our nominated charities this year will be cancer research and promise dreams.
please give generously.
