75 year old Devizes Lion Nick Seager said:
"I am cycling from Land’s End to John O’Groats because I'm nuts and I want to!
At 75 perhaps I should be thinking about taking it easy. Right?
Errr....No!
I'm an active member of Devizes Lions, a vibrant local charity that raises funds to help support both needy individuals and local charities.
Fund raising for charities has been a massive challenge for over a year now. I feel that I can help by raising money through this challenge.
Please donate whatever you can. 100% of the money
raised (including gift aid) will be used to support local charities. I shall personally cover all my ride expenses.
Originally planned for May 2020 I'm now scheduled for a June 2nd start from Land’s End arriving in John O’Groats on June 25th. I will mostly be cycling on my own and be self-supporting because of the times in which we’re living. I'm OK for that challenge but your charitable contributions would definitely give me a boost!
Here's the planned route - 998 miles and 52,572 feet of climbing. That's kill or cure isn't it?!"
