rnli coastal cycle ride

I am Steve McAllister, recently retired.  I’m  cycling around the coast of the British Isles, i.e. England, all of Ireland, Scotland, Wales and every other island that hosts an RNLI Lifeboat Station. This is a personal challenge and an attempt to raise money for the charity that saves lives at sea, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution.

You can support my efforts by donating to the RNLI via my Virgin Money Giving page.
