Don't know if any of you have heard about the 12th Man 'Ride to Bury'..?

I'm one of 21 riders who are cycling 300 miles to Bury for the last game of the season.
We are raising money for PCFC shares and the #FightForJack fund (proceeds to be split equally).

If you wanted to know more, or would like to donate, you can do so here: http://www.ride2bury.co.uk

I'm also looking for 'corporate' sponsorship, please PM me if you want more details.

I'm a Cyclist myself so hats off to you.

I've done a donation via Paypal - good luck

I'm not, but still hats off, usually I find them road hogging bastards...

But this is a massive task - Monoloco will do you a little corporate sum mate, sponsor your shorts

Catch you soon - get behind this people, its very deserving..

Thanks both. It appears that young Jack has taken a turn for the worse today. Keep fighting little man.

sad news mate. Hope for better news.

If Widley is sponsoring your shorts, I'll sponsor the chamoix lining and padding.

Cheers Jasp, have just seen this and replied

Poor Jack died last night. A statement:

Thank you from the ‪#‎ride2bury‬ team for the donations that we have received previously and today. As a team we are humbled to have this upcoming opportunity to do something that will really help other people in situations like the Robinsons.

To think that we are only £160 from having raised £13,000 and we still have 3 weeks to go is truly amazing! In case you were not aware, the 50% that was originally being set aside for Jack will be split 3 ways and go to Naomi House/Cancer Charity and the ward in Southampton that helped care for Jack and his family whilst he was there.

This is yet again, Pompey fans and the local community really coming together with a common purpose and aim. Together we can achieve anything we put our collective minds to and the power to be able to help others is the greatest gift we have.

Thank you all & Play UP Pompey

Such sad news.

Also, its a hell of an achievement for these riders..

(P.S. VinceH = NH? Is that right?) Good to see the Monoloco logo up there - well done Widders. Did he design that too?

Anyways, will bung a in a few quid then. Nice tribute to little Jack on Saturday. Brave family, little Liam, that will be tough for him as he grows.

Yes VH = NH and yes, Saturday was very moving - have to admit to shedding a tear or three when Liam released the balloon
