RICKI Critchell, corporate finance manager at accountancy firm Milsted Langdon, has raised £1,300 for Breast Cancer Now after completing the Prudential RideLondon cycling challenge.
She was one of 30,000 riders at the 100-mile challenge from the Olympic Park, Stratford, through the capital and the Surrey countryside to The Mall.
Ricki said: "I wanted to raise money as a close friend was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier in the year and has recently undergone surgery following four months of chemotherapy.
"The thought of me raising money for this cause, which will see my friend fighting fit again soon, helped me keep going until the end."
