Setting off on a motorbike odyssey in support of the Marfan Trust, James and Terry are the Honda Cub Tour! With Land's End now behind them, they're bound for John O' Groats, following the roads less travelled and sleeping under the stars as they go James' son, Archie, has Marfan syndrome, making this journey one of both adventure and purpose. We will be following every stage of their long trip and keeping you posted!
Read Archie's Story and Donate Here
Marfan syndrome is extremely close to my heart as my son, Archie, was born with it in 2008. Throughout his childhood, Archie has undergone gruelling procedures related to the condition, including a full spinal fusion in December 2020. He also faces operations on his heart in the future. We see first-hand the challenges that those affected by Marfan’s face, and would like to do our bit to help by doing this ride in aid of Marfan Trust.
We are riding from Sedgefield to Land’s End, then over to John ‘o’ Groats, before heading back to Sedgefield again. A total of 1877 miles! We are doing this without using any motorways, and we are either staying at campsites or wild camping.
We would be grateful of any donations to help the cause, which can be done though our Just Giving page, which is linked below. We will keep you updated throughout our travels!
Thank you for reading!
