Why 25000spins?

The shocking facts:

• 25,000 children under the age of 5 die each day due to poverty-related causes.
• Number of children in the world 2.2 billion. Number in poverty 1 billion (every second child).

In November 2008 I was wishing to do some sort of challenge and to do something new. At the time I was working for an investment bank in London and life in so many ways was amazing for me.

I decided to set about organizing a challenge to ride from London to Athens in the summer of 2009. My aim was to raise £25,000 for children in need. My trip of roughly 4,000 km to Athens would have my legs doing approx. 25,000 spins per day. Shockingly 25,000 children die everyday, £25,000 to raise and 25,000 leg spins per day. Hence the reason for the name 25000spins.

Charity
