From source to sea - Riding the Rhine for Littlelifts
Alex Whitaker
My Story
We are the Whitaker brothers, Matthew (the older one) and Alex (the younger, cuter one) and this year we are planning to cycle the whole of the River Rhine from it's source in Andermatt, Switzerland, to where it meets the North Sea in Rotterdam, Holland. Once we are done, will will jump on a ferry then continue the last leg from Harwich to Norwich, the home of our chosen charity - Littlelifts.
We live in England and Germany, approximately 1000km apart, and although we both have a passion for riding our bikes, we rarely get the opportunity to ride together. So this July we will be embarking on a journey that will not only let us spend a bit of time together as we ride through the heart of Europe, we are also aiming to raise awareness and important financial support for a charity that makes a huge difference to women at what can be a devastating and scary time in their lives when they are diagnosed with primary breast cancer.
Littlelifts makes a big difference and any sponsorship you can give us will be truly appreciated!
1400km in approximately 10 days (depending on the weather and if we get lost)
