On February 28th 2007 Ian (Big Joe) Battye (the father of team member Michael Battye) lost his fight against esophageal cancer, he was 54 years of age.
In 2011 there are 2 cycling events taking place in memory of Ian (Big Joe) Battye and all the other people who have lost there fighting against cancer. We will be raising money for The Yorkshire Cancer Centre.
