Jo and John have been cycling together for the last 25 years. They enjoy cycle touring and have been to Cuba, Italy, France and Sweden on bikes. They spent their honeymoon cycling between Bangkok and Ho Chi Minh. 

John is a keen cyclist and loves long distance rides. He completed John o’ Groats to Lands End solo 12 years ago. The Essex 100 is personally significant for him since it passes two of his schools, the hospital he was born in and close to his childhood home. 

Jo is a trustee of LAM Action and a LAM patient. She works with several medical charities and is impressed by the way in which LAM Action’s fundraising is used directly to support patients and their families and to further LAM research. 

Don’t expect us to break any records on this event. We do like to stop for coffee and to enjoy the views!
