Story

Harrison came up with the idea of riding from Essex to Edinburgh in memory of his Grandad, who sadly passed away from Covid after diabetes related complications in February 2021.  It would have been Alan's 71st birthday on the 8th of May, so Chris, Harrison and I are going to use the exercise bike (that was Alan's) to ride from Essex (Alan's last address) to Edinburgh (where Alan was from).  This is 662 kilometres which we hope to complete within the month of May.  Any sponsorship/comments you could offer would be greatly appreciated.  Harrison will be stalking my just giving page and will love seeing his effort going to such a worthwhile cause that will help towards saving other diabetes sufferers lives.
