Two employees from wood specialist Winther Browne are going to ride from John O'Groats to Land's End to raise money for charity.

The ride will take approximately seven days to complete and the duo will be covering an average of 125 miles a day. The plan is to start the ride on 29th May 2010 and finish on 4th June 2010.



The monies raised will be split between Breast Cancer research and Cancer Research.

Asked why they had chosen this particular feat Pete Tarrier, operations manager for Winther Browne said:  'It is a real challenge and Andy and I love a challenge. It will be a great sense of achievement to be able to say we did it and it is also raising money for two worthy causes!'
