Bike ride Sunderland to Everton in support of Bradley Lowery Foundation.


We are now at £3528 now, thanks everyone for your support. If you haven't donated yet, it's not too late.

Chris Waters called me and is arranging for a pitchside interview at half time on Saturday, so hopefully that will generate more donations to the BLF.

Chris has also told me the club will be covering this on safc.com and their social media next week, plus they are putting something in the Sunderland v Chelsea programme on 24th May.

Thanks very much to you and everyone else who has donated. I'm meeting Gemma Lowery and one of her team later and I know they're really grateful for the financial support.

We are currently at £3884 and Aaron the Everton supporter has said he will dye his hair blue if we can get to £4k before the ride starts on Wednesday.

I have already donated but just stuck another tenner in to try to get you closer to the 4K ( Aaron will match me with blue hair if you reach your target 😁.)

Great stuff mate, Good luck to you all.
 
Had a long bike ride yesterday, over 68 miles up to Amble and back, new personal record. That was my last training session before Wednesday.

Meeting Gemma Lowery and one of her team today for a coffee, they are massively appreciative for the funds raised so far.

Speaking of which, we are currently at £3884 , and Aaron the Everton supporter has said if we reach £4000 before Wednesday he will dye his hair blue for the ride. So please donate whatever you can if you haven't already done so.

Was a great experience speaking pitchside on Saturday and definitely looking forward to a beer when this is all over. Day 26 of no beer.

Will probably watch Millwall v Hull unless Spurs are unexpectedly losing to Leeds.

Stay safe everyone.

Hi everyone

I wanted to announce that I'm doing a 200 mile charity bike ride in May for the Bradley Lowery Foundation.

Doing it for the Everton away game, stopping at the following grounds on the way , starting on 13th May (anniversary of Dan Ballard header). I'm doing it with an Everton supporter and we are looking to raise £3k for the Bradley Lowery Foundation.

Start point is the Stadium of Light, then stopping enroute at the following grounds subject to final agreement with the clubs;

Sunderland
Middlesbrough
York City
Leeds United
Huddersfield Town
Bradford City
Burnley
Wigan Athletic
Manchester City
Manchester United
Liverpool
Everton (Goodison Park)
Everton (Hill Dickinson)

The game against Everton is on the weekend of what would've been Bradley's birthday.

On the Saturday we're looking to stop at Anfield and Aaron (the Everton supporter) has arranged a charity evening to raise money for the BLF.

Final leg of the journey is a short hop from Anfield to Goodison then Hill Dickinson on match day morning.

I'm a huge admirer of the work carried out by the BLF and they have set up a fundraiser which I am asking people to donate whatever they can afford to this magnificent organisation. Here is a link if anyone wishes to donate.

Be a great effort that mate and best of luck.

On a side notes there's 3 lads running down. They've set off this morning. They haven't quite hit their target yet. It would be great is the good people on this message board could help.

I'll post the link below
