I will be starting in Bogota and riding some 10,000 miles through Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina, to Tierra del Fuego and Ushuaia, the most southerly city in the world. My aim remains to raise as much money as I can for two different charities, "The Down’s Syndrome Association", and the special needs school , "Woolgrove". I pay for all of my costs and therefore all monies from donations go to the two charities.
