1 in 8 men will get prostate cancer and this year my Dad was diagnosed with it. Thankfully it was caught early and he is now on the road to remission.

To help support the valuable work of Prostate Cancer UK, I will be cycling, as part of Team Gadget Racing, from Lands End to John O'Groats, 1000 miles in less than two weeks.

Prostate Cancer UK use the funding to improve research into early diagnosis and treatment, as well as with assisting in the support and care of those who are affected.

My 4 year old son is coming on the adventure as part of the support crew and he will be attempting to ride the final part of the each day with us. By the time the challenge starts, he will have only been riding his bike for a couple of months!

I know many are feeling the pinch at the moment, but if you are able to, any donation is greatly appreciated.
