Join me on my Bike for Borderlands in 2026, supporting the Butterfly Conservation project for the Nothern Brown Argus.

Since 2021, I have combined my enjoyment of cycling with my passion for butterflies and moths to raise money for Butterfly Conservation. My first #BikeForButterflies, from Land's End to John o'Groats, raised over £38,000.

My 2nd #BikeForButterflies in 2023 was 700 miles along the Caledonian Way from Oban to Inverness, starting from Glasgow and taking in the islands of Mull, Coll and Tiree. That raised another £5,000.

A 3rd #BikeForButterflies in 2024, from Llandudno (The Great Orme) via Wrexham, Manchester, Preston, Morecambe, Bridlington (The Way of the Roses), Hull, to Kettering. Another 700 miles and another £5,000 raised!

My fourth #BikeForButterflies in 2025, around the Welsh Coast from Penarth (Cardiff) to Holyhead, raised over £3,500 - over £50,000 in total (including gift aid). I've also done rides "for fun" along the Forth & Clyde and Union Canals in Scotland (2024) and the Hebridean Way (2025).

That's 3,400 miles in total - and hills equivalent to 31 times up Ben Nevis.
