SICILY BIKE CHALLENGE, MAY 2009

The annual cycle ride organised by Mick Fenning was a wonderful success with the exception of a serious accident – Danny Farmer completed the challenge but on the home stretch to the hotel had to break suddenly at a speed of 40mph falling off his bike luckily missing a wall. He sustained a broken arm and leg requiring 4 hour surgery to insert metal plates. He is recovering well and more concerned about Oscar who has Lowe Syndrome who visited him whilst in Sicily!

The event raised almost £25,000 – a fantastic achievement in spite of the present economic climate.
