Another round of epic cycling

300 80
Bede House

John McEwan has just been in touch after his epic 300 mile cycle ride from London-Paris at the end of July in support of Bede.

Unfortunately, with 5 miles to go, John took a tumble from his bike just under the Arc de Triomphe breaking his elbow. Amazingly he got back on immediately and completed the race using one hand! Despite the tumble he said of the event: ‘What an absolutely amazing experience! I’ve slept every time I’ve sat down for the past few days but am starting to recover now.’

John showed great determination not just in riding 300 miles, taking a fall and dodging terrifying Parisian traffic, but also great resilience in finishing the route with a broken elbow! He’s got the bug and wants to do more.’ Thank you John’. What an achievement!

John’s fundraising currently stands at £851. Help him reach his goal of £2000 by donating at https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/john-mcewan6
