Story

I am riding 900 miles from Lands End to John O'Groats in 9 days from Friday 24th May 2013 to Saturday 1st June 2013. Ross was one of my students at Balshaw's High School and was the keystone of a superb football team whom I had the privilege of 'managing' for five years. After Ross left Balshaw's I had the pleasure of accompanying him on a number of fishing trips and his death in August after a long, brave battle against cancer has left a profound gap - we lost a wonderful young man who left an indelible mark on everyone he met.

So dig deep and donate. All the money raised will go to the Young Oncology Unit at The Christie. "Keeping the Adventure Alive".
