What is the L2R Challenge?         A solo, unsupported bike ride,       minimum of 350 miles from Lytham St Anne's, Lancashire to Risca, South Wales. To involve non-cycling friends and local community groups, it also includes two parkruns and a bit of roller skiing.

Why I'm doing it Diabetes affects millions of people across the UK. By taking on this challenge, I’m raising funds to support Diabetes UK’s vital research, education and support services. My nephew, Charlie, lives with type 1 diabetes, the challenge is all about cycling from my house in England to his house in Wales and raising awareness of Diabetes UK along the way.
