A letter to the media regarding 'A Man, His Bike and Some Crampons'

A Man, His Bike and Some Crampons

Dear Sir/Madam,

In May next year I will be undertaking the challenge of a lifetime, cycling from John o’Groats to Land’s End and climbing the three highest peaks of Scotland, England and Wales along the way. I will be taking on this challenge solo. The route totals over 1900km of cycling, 17km of climbing and with a vertical assent of 2963m it’s no mean feat.

Although this journey has been completed before, it has not been done under any significant time restraints. I have therefore set myself the challenge to reach Land’s End in less than ten days; the Guinness World Records have confirmed that this has never been attempted.

I am 23 years old, I have a degree in bio mechanics and I work with up and coming athletes providing training programs, support and education on a daily basis. I have chosen to dedicate this adventure to a charity close to my heart, SportsAid, which works with and provides funding for both able and disabled athletes, aged 12-18 years old. I have a target of £50,000 and with your assistance we will together help the next generation of young British sports men and women succeed.  You can read more about SportsAid on their ‘About US’ page.

I believe that this event has the potential to be extremely successful and I think you will agree that I need a significant level of media promotion and publicity to make this possible. I am confident that with your media experience and coverage you have the ability to help me make this impact on an exponential scale. 

My contribution to SportsAid is important and well worth the effort. Your help with this would be invaluable, whether it be a small article, a news piece or some other form of promotion.

If you would like to join me in supporting this outstanding event, please reply to me and we can discuss the possibilities.

Thank you for considering my request for your support. If you have any questions about the event ‘A Man, His Bike and Some Crampons’ please do not hesitate to call me. I hope that together we can make a really
positive impact and raise a really valuable sum of money for SportsAid.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind Regards

Matthew Page
