A pair of Didcot fundraisers aim to cycle a staggering 130 miles a day to get from Lands End to John O’Groats within seven days.

Ben Harrison and good friend Rick Field are challenging themselves to cycle 920 miles within a week.

Currently around halfway through they have so far raised nearly £3,000 for Oxford Children’s Hospital Charity.

The duo set off on Monday and are set to reach the end destination of John O'Groats on Sunday.

Mr Harrison’s wife Sonia said: "Ben and Rick will be attempting the monumental challenge of cycling from Lands End to John O’Groat’s, 920 miles, which is amazing in itself, but they have set themselves the extra challenge of completing this in seven days, that’s approximately 130 miles per day, back to back!

“As well as a personal challenge for the pair of them, they would also love to raise some money for charity and have agreed on a very deserving cause of the Oxford Children’s Hospitals and the amazing work they do and the number of hearts they touch."

She added: "If you would like to support the boys and the cause, any donations, big or small, will be greatly appreciated."
