Story
As of June 14th the challenge has been completed, we rode Hero a whopping 87 times!! It was total pain but totally worth it 😂
Having previously ridden the wettest ride in the UK, Tidal Wave at Thorpe Park, all day for charity - I have since been wanting to one up that with something that would most certainly be the biggest challenge yet.
Upon thinking of a bigger challenge, I thought to one of the most ''unique'' rollercoasters in the UK - Hero at Flamingo Land - and wondered if it were even fathomable to ride that for an hour, let alone all day.
What started as a thought - has now developed into another all-day charity event, riding Hero All Day for Mind. Join me (DigitalDan), Marcus (Thrill Riders), Sam Costello and Tom (TomRidesRides) as we take on this insane challenge. Call us mad as much as you want! 😂
Enough about the ride, the charity we're doing this for is the most important part - Mind, a mental health charity. The amazing people over at Mind make sure no one has to face mental health problems alone. It's fundamental that we become more confident in speaking out about our difficulties. Whether it be ourselves or someone else, it's likely you're aware of the negative impact mental health struggles can have on our everyday lives. This is why we've decided to support such a great cause.
So please, if you have even the smallest amount spare, a donation would be much appreciated. Once the final amount is collected we'll distribute it to the charity in it's full amount.
