    Just watched the video at the bottom of the article. He didn't seem convinced about the next 4 days of cycling at the beginning :D Had to chuckle at the "I haven't really ridden a bike before" :D. I'd assumed he must be a mad keen cyclist but it seems not. Great effort and a fantastic cause. I'd guess most of us on here have family or friends that have been treated at Weston Park. Please donate if you can. Link to donate is here

    If he can tell us what time he's setting off from Burton tomorrow, I'll cycle into town to say hello.

    As an FYI for everyone, and will go out in the BFCST newsletter before the weekend, we’ve donated £100 to Andrew for giving this a go with pretty much zero prep or training. Brilliant effort.

    The lengths you have to go to these days to have a week out of the office….

    I wonder if I can do something similar...

    Boss, I've made a decision to do a long and worthwhile fund raising effort.

    Is it ok if I can take some time out and still be paid whilst you take all the plaudits on the main company website

    Sure Nez, how long do you need

    Erm, about 25 years should do it

    (Ps, not knocking him or BFC in anyway, just a bad attempt of doing a Jay style conversational post)
