A mate popped up a plea on Facebook as someone he’d cycled with many a year and I recognised the name... our own supporters rep.

Hopefully summit admins would welcome on the forum but please love if required. Apols has not seen this mentioned before...

Cheers for the shout out Viva. Great experience Friday into yesterday - loads of support from Hibs fans throughout the days (HFC scrawled onto the road climb in chalk a couple of times).

Cycled 200 miles round Arthur Seat in the end to help raise awareness the barry work Support in Mind Scotland do. Over £2,000 raised for charity tae, so fair chuffed with that.

All barry. As always, if there is anything I can do for anyone here - Hibs or not - gies a shout.

Well done Kieron!!! Not just the money raised it's the awareness and to get people talking about mental health issues

Great stuff KP.
I’ve done a spot of mental health fundraising myself in the past after a few darker days, and after reading your updates on twitter and the evening news article I agree there’s no better feeling than accomplishing your goal and knowing you are helping out people in need. It’s a real self esteem builder!

There was a thread on the Dugout on here about Anxiety & depression - anyone reading this I’d highly recommend a spot of fundraising to help get you back to where you want to be.

Donation coming your way on payday chief, can’t imagine how sore you must be today!

I used to work in London with “Frickletinho” so it’s all his fault. Donation already in :)
