Mad Syclists

[p]Hi. The [b]M[/b]ad[b] S[/b]yclists are Ruth Walker and Vicky Seville, cycling for anyone with MS. All donations will go to the MS Worcester and District group. They really do need your help.[/p][p]We completed our 1000 mile bike ride from Lands End to John O'Groats. The weather was appalling for most of our 15 days but we never once thought of giving up.[/p][p]We were joined along our route by friends and family who brought good wishes, custard creams and a kilo of galaxy. Only issue was we had to carry everything so we just ate it to lighten our load 😃[/p][p]We met numerous people who wished us well, gave cash donations and even a cuppa. Thanks to all.[/p][p]There are so many worthy causes, why support this one? Some facts about MS first: [/p][p]Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a condition that affects your brain and spinal cord. In MS, the coating that protects your nerves (myelin) is damaged, and this causes a range of symptoms.[/p][p]Once diagnosed, MS stays with you for life, but treatments and specialists can help you to manage the condition and its symptoms.[/p][p]More than 100,000 people in the UK have MS. In the UK, people are most likely to find out they have MS in their thirties, forties and fifties. But the first signs of MS often start years earlier.
