My Mission..


My name is Glenn Karpeta, and having only recently taken up cycling for pleasure, I am undertaking a sponsored solo bike ride of 240 Truro and Guildford. The ride is on 10th June and my aim is to complete this in 15 hours or less in the saddle. My coach and mentor, Ben Rankilor assures me that the ride is possible, but adds that it will be incredibly tough and that I am “probably certifiable”. I chose to raise funds for the Samson Centre as its chairman, John Hambly, is a long-time personal friend and former team mate with Old Actonians Rugby Club.I am putting in hours and hours of training and still have over 2,000 miles of training cycling to do before the big day. Obviously sponsorship is the whole point of this ride – to raise as much as possible for the Samson Centre so please help by digging deep into your pockets and making a pledge or a donation.Your sponsorship will be hugely appreciated and put to great use at the Samson Centre. Sponsor me on-line at http://www.justgiving.GlennKarpeta or send sponsorship money to Mrs S. Bower, 17 Oak Tree Road, Milford, Godalming, Surrey. GU8 5JJ if paying by cheque, please make your cheque payable to “MSTG (G) Samson Centre”.
Many thanks for your support, and visiting my page.

The hardest part of all this is the 'no alcohol allowed' rule –first time in 25 years!
