On Sunday 3rd May 2015 I will be taking part in The Tour De Yorkshire cycling sportive. I will be cycling in memory of my dad and raising money for Cancer Research UK. I am cycling the 140km route and expect to do this in around 6 hours.

On February 28 2007 Ian (Big Joe) Battye my dad lost his fight against esophageal cancer, he was 54 years of age. Over the years I done several charity bike rides raising money for Cancer related charities.
