Lands End to John O'Groats in 5 days · 30 May 2014

St Margaret’s Hospice has been at the heart of Somerset’s community for over 40 years, delivering high quality, responsive and compassionate care to patients and their families facing a life-limiting illness.

Story

Who:

Rob and Alex met on a ski holiday a few of years ago. They discovered they had a mutual passion for cycling and racing.

The Challenge:

A couple of years later after one to many! They had a great idea!! "Let's ride Land's End to John O'Groats"  and to make it a challenge , why not do it in 5 days!  

With the help from two very supportive partners ( Sue & Estelle) along with some family members a plan was hatched. 

We would ride an average of 176 miles a day.  With supporting partners driving a campervan, meeting us at various locations along the route armed with food and water.

The Charities:

  Alex recently lost his mum to cancer.  St Margarets Hospice were brilliant throughout.  They provided great support and comfortable surroundings until the end.  The staff were nothing short of amazing. I have always wanted to show my appreciation and hope this is going to be my chance.

The second charity we want to raise money for is Sport relief. We both have a passion for sport and appreciate all the benefits it can bring to people from all walks of life.
