Kevin Paylor on his bike

Kevin Paylor “rode” to the challenge last Sport Relief by cycling to work - a total of 42 Miles away from the Yorkshire Dales where he lives!

Grand total of £1070 raised

But the pain he felt from his mammoth bike ride just melted away when he saw he’d raised an astonishing £1,070.

School boy

His fantastic effort could pay for ten children living on the streets in Tanzania to go to secondary school for a whole year. Way to go Kevin!
