I started participating in charity biking events in summer of 1997 in the M.C.C. Cycle-athon and raised $300.
This was only a 50 km event and eventually I moved up to the 400 km events and in one year I raised $20 000.
I now also participate in Triathlons and Running events all for charities. But my favorite events have always been the Biking events, which is my strongest sport and my passion.
