For the last 5 years I have been part of an amazing group of individuals – the Heavy Metal Truants, cycling 175 miles from London to Donnington in aid of 3 fantastic children's charities. With the actual ride cancelled and a new virtual ride taking its place, I will be pounding out the 175 miles on my bike in the lounge on a turbo trainer (thankfully not in the rain like last year).
If you are able to spare some change or something more substantial, we will be extremely grateful.
Many thanks for your continued support.
All the best, Richard "Iron" Orr

"Good luck with this, Richard! It's so great you've found a way to do this virtually - even if pedalling 175 miles without ever moving from the same room does sound a bit like a mild form of torture to me. :P Hope it goes well! "
"Good Luck with the virtual Ride Richardo! Hope you have a real beer at the end of it all and settle down for a night of Erasure in concert on the TV as a consolation for missing all that heavy rock ;) Love from all the Peas xxxx"
