I'm taking part in the Rapha Manchester to London Challenge, a 220 mile one day ride from the Manchester Velodrome to the Olympic Velodrome to raise money for Ambitious About Autism. Jonathan Vaughters, head of Garmin Sharp was kind enough to donate the jersey for the auction. 

I'm afraid I don't know who all the signatures are but there are more than 20 including Alex Howes, Christian Vande Velde, David Zabriskie, Fabian Wegman, Jack Bauer, Jacob Rathe, Michel Kreder, Rohan Dennis, Ryder Hesjedal, Andrew Talansky, Steele Von Hoff, and Tom Danielson.

All of the proceeds will be donated to Ambitious about Autism and I will pay the shipping costs.
