Julie McElory is at it again. Diagnosed with cerebral palsy at birth, Julie has overcome countless obstacles. After having crossed the Amazon Basin as part of the BBC's Beyond Boundaries television series and helping to train and organise the first wheelchair climb of Ben Nevis, Julie is planning an 89km cycle ride form Edinburgh to Glasgow.

Her previous adventures have helped to raise millions for charities across the UK. This ride is specifically to raise awareness and money for Bobath Scotland Children's Cerebral Palsy Therapy Centre in Glasgow. Having used the Bobath Scotland Centre in her youth, Julie realises that, "In its 16-year history, Bobath Scotland has helped hundreds of children to realise their potential and live life to the full, as I have always done."

Edinburgh to Glasgow is to be the first leg of 'Julie's Bobath Challenge.' Her route will be through Broxburn, Linlithgow, Polmont, Falkirk, Bonnybridge and Kirkintilloch ending in Port Dundas, Glasgow where Bobath Centre is located. The route can be difficult for even an experienced and able-bodied cyclist, but Julie is determined to push the boundaries of her own abilities. Her ride will take place on the 31 March and the goal is to finish the same day. The bicycle was donated by Mike Downie co-owner of the Bike Chain in Edinburgh and has been fitted with mirrors to help Julie judge traffic as her hearing impairment limits her ability to do this.

Mr. Bill Kidd MSP Glasgow Region said: "Julie is truly to be admired for her spirit and conviction. She has triumphed over the odds and become a beacon of hope for all those who know her or have read about her accomplishments.

"I don't doubt her exploits will raise the funds and awareness for cerebral palsy and support for Bobath Scotland Centre that they deserve. Julie's drive to break her physical restrictions is remarkable. I am in awe of her unfailing attitude and optimism.

"I wish the best to Julie on her ride from Edinburgh to Glasgow and on the future legs of 'Julie's Bobath Challenge.' I would also like to acknowledge the great service Bobath Scotland Children's Cerebral Palsy Therapy Centre has give to over 600 Scottish children with cerebral palsy."
