Last week, Apple FM presenter, Chris Wareing completed the Cycle Against Cancer challenge raising money for Love Musgrove, for the Beacon Centre, and Apple FM too. Chris was using a static bike (courtesy of Turbo Trainer Hire) to cycle 97.3KM from the concourse in Musgrove Park Hospital.
Chris started at 9am and completed the challenge shortly after 1pm. The challenge was also broadcast live on Apple FM in a marathon 7 hour show presented by Tony Dicks and Steve Westwood in the studio. Presenter Greg Perkins was with Chris to hold the broadcast together from the concourse.
The challenge didn’t end after Chris completed the 97.3KM as Dave Ridgeway, another presenter on Apple FM, took over on the bike and completed another 59.3KM. In total Chris and Dave completed 156.6KM which is equal to 97.3 miles
We exceeded our donation target and by the end of the challenge had raised over £1,200 and it’s still not too late to donate. If you wish to make a donation of any amount click here.
We would like to thank everyone who donated or who came along to show support for Chris and Dave at the concourse.
