Set up by a team of cycling enthusiasts, all of whom have lost a family member or a friend to cancer, Bike 4 Cancer is primarily a provider of days out and short-breaks for British families affected by cancer.
We also make grants to UK based care institutions and support research into the positive effects of exercise (e.g. cycling) and how it can help with cancer prevention and recovery.
On the 12 July 2017 Oliver will set off on his epic Ark to Arc challenge leaving from the Ark Cancer Centre in Basingstoke and cycling to Porstmouth before getting the overnight ferry to Caen in aid of Bike 4 Cancer and the Ark Cancer Centre Charity.
Oliver will then spend a further 3 days in the saddle cycling from Caen to Alencon and then onto Evreux finally finishing in Paris!
"Well!!!! I haven't ridden a bike in about five years so thought well why not let's just ride to Paris!
How hard can it actually be?
Not looking forward to the chafing, but it's good to be getting out there and raising money for The Ark Cancer Centre and Bike 4 Cancer also raising awareness.
Wish me luck as I am going to need it also any donations would be grateful Dig Deep as its going to a great cause."
