This is the second in a series of challenges being under taken by members of the Torbay Lifeboat Crew cumlinating with the climbing of Mount Kilimanjaro in Febuary 2023.

The team led by the station Coxswain, Mark Criddle, cycled over 200 miles across six islands in the Western Isles of Scotland in June. It is an endurance challenge known to cycling enthusiasts north of the border, but less well known to our Devon based sea-farers!
