We are cycling the length of the USA 'downhill' from Toronto to New Orleans, at least 2000 miles depending on if interstate highways will have us...

We hope to fundraise for some amazing South East children’s charities local to us in Brixton, London, and close to my heart. This is in the spirit of prior Brits going ‘Cross America’ like Justin Levine’s incredible hand-bike crossing in 2022, and Rory Carter’s taxi across in 2015.

Thank you for taking a look at my page, I’ll be updating along the route. Any donation you can spare will massively motivate me as I sweat my way down the country in unpleasant temperatures. I’m very grateful for any support - either donating or sharing my trip.
