    Spex Sponsor Local Charity Cycle

    Spex Sponsor 1066 Mile Charity Cycle! Leigh Thistlethwaite and Mark Smith, are planning to cycle over 1,000 miles, a gruelling 75 miles a day for 14 days from John O’ Groats to Land’s End, to raise money for the East Lancashire Hospice.

    “This will be one of the most exciting challenges of our lives in aid of a very worthy cause. We are still looking for as much sponsorship money as we can get, help with bike spares, anything.”

    You can donate via their charity web page at justgiving.co.uk/jogle-bikeride
