My story

Roger Bedson and James Nott have finished travelling the length of the country on two vintage Massey Ferguson tractors to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

The trip came about after James’ brother Edward died of a cancerous brain tumour in July 2002.  James and Roger are raising money for Cancer Research UK in Edward's memory. 

The tour started at John O’Groats on Thursday 29th May 2008 and finished 845 miles and 10 days later at Land’s End on Saturday 7th June.

James and Roger are hoping people will give generously to support their feat of heroism and road hoggery.
