The cyclists
SIX men cycled from John O’Groats to Land’s End in less than three days to raise money for Cancer Research.
They raised more than £6,000 from the 873-mile-challenge in a non-stop relay which took 66 hours. They were inspired to take on the challenge for friend Lucy Watkins, who was diagnosed with breast cancer.
