a 400 mile 5 day unsupported bike ride from Aberdeen to St. Andrews, via Aberlour,

They are doing this ride to raise greater awareness of the work being done to support
people and families affected by Motor Neurone Disease.
Motor Neurone Disease is a fatal neurological illness with no cure that affects both
men and women. It can cause progressive paralysis, loss of speech and difficulty
eating and drinking.
The ride is in memory of John Mackie MBE, Richard’s father-in-law, who lost his 12 year
battle with the illness last summer, and inspired everyone who was fortunate enough to
have met him to try and make a positive difference to benefit others.
