This map marks each point on the journey and will hopefully be updated with my progress each day. It also shows the differently coloured HFT regions as well as each HFT service and office.
I’m 65 years old and am about to ride a bicycle from Land’s End to John O’Groats, a distance of over 1000 miles, because I’m passionate about raising money for HFT, the charity of which I’m Chairman.
HFT has homes all over the country caring for adults with learning disabilities such as Down’s syndrome, autism, challenging behaviour and many other such disabilities. I’m committed to raising desperately-needed funds to give a better quality of life to so many profoundly disabled people, and to help HFT to grow to meet what is sadly a rapidly increasing demand for our care and support.
Please support me in my 1000 mile cycle ride – that’s a mile for each one of the people in our care all over the country – by sponsoring me as generously as you possibly can. Thank you so much!

Richard,
the 'Best of British' to you and your companions on this marvellous ride to raise money for the homes.
I know you will complete this journey and I will be following it with interest via your blog.
Best Wishes - Alan Merton
ps : don't forget you are also a golfer so don't go falling off your bike at any stage!
Best of Luck Richard and to your mates. I guess you are in the limbering up stage with just a few hours to go????????
Do you know why they call them push bikes in Cornwall????
