We cycled in glorious sunshine to raise money for Sustrans on Sunday when the London Marathon (26 miles) was due to take place. 

That event was the world’s biggest one-day fundraising event, which raised more than £66.4 million for thousands of charities last year – £66.4 million they won’t be receiving this year.

The idea is to do something simple around 2.6 or 26 of something to help raise that money for charities.

With the help of my wife, Hanna, and our two daughters Alexa and Lulu we enjoyed blissfully empty roads on our two tandems and did exactly 26km - complete with doughnut stop for Lulu in Ascot.
