Although, like most people, members of Craig's family have been helped by MacMillan, one of his main incentives to participate in the cycle was to get some peace and quiet in the pub which was only achieved once he had said yes to Shane.

He was a keen cyclist as a much younger man (20 years ago) and had thought the days of long Sunday morning rides were behind him. He's looking forward to getting fitter and to raising hopefully lots of money for an incredible cause. He has already embarked on an intensive fitness regime which has largely involved not opening the second bottle until the kids are in bed.

So please dig deep and donate now.
