My Father in Law Ian, died last year as a direct result of Multiple System Atrophy, a rare and very under publicised form of Parkinson's Disease.  It robbed him of his ability to move, eat properly and communicate.  He faced it with dignity and stoicism.  Last year we raised money for St Lukes Hospice by riding the Coast to Coast ride from Whitehaven to Sunderland.. this year we want to 'up the ante' by riding the 250 miles from Padstow to Bath and raise money for the charity that researches this awful disease and hopefully one day will find a cure.
