Kirky to Turkey

The first post is an obvious one. Has to be about my charity cycle from Kirkintilloch to Istanbul for yorkhill children's foundation.

Firstly I'd like to thank everybody that has donated so far, I really appreciate it. I am currently sitting on £595 on my just giving page and about £50 or £60 cash donations so far. Still got a bit to go to get to my target of £2000 so if you haven't donated yet go on and stick a cheeky wee fiver down at www.justgiving.co.uk/chrisbarr90 Keep your eyes peeled for my race night. All going well should be in the good old Kirky miners in the next few weeks. Feel like I'm Writing a bloody award speech but also thanks to Craig Hardie for the front and rear racks to carry all my gear to turkey and to alpine bikes for sorting me out with a generous discount for all my other equipment and accessories. Arse licking out the way...moving on.

So couple of weeks ago I put on Facebook that if I get £100 worth of donations in one day I won't shave until I leave for turkey. Well...I got £220 in the space of a few hours. FUCK! So no shaving until June the 1st. I'm now loving my beard and feel like we've been together for years. Come the 1st of June is it coming off?? Is it fuck. It's here to stay. Had mixed views, people absolutely love it or hate. Ah well. Now I can take gay pictures of myself and post them instagram and feel a little less homo/guilty about it. Can't wait until I learn to post videos on this so you can 1. Check out my kick ass beard and 2. Put a face to all the shite your reading.

Sooooooo first one out the way loads more shite to follow in the leading weeks and months, hope you enjoy reading. If you don't then get it up yi :)

Much love
