Fair play to him on his cycle ride. It'd be hard work for a younger man, but it's a hell of a challenge for a bloke of almost 70. What I didn't know was that Bob's middle name was Primrose. On the subject of challenges, the Steve Prescott one's immense. Lands End to John O'Groats in 9 days is bloody hard, but to detour to take in the three peaks including Snowdon is incredible.
I overcame an enormous physical challenge of my own this morning, I did 10 push ups and If I'm feeling good this aft I might do another 10.
I've never seen it myself so it could be an urban myth, but I've heard some people even do them laid down.
A mate of mine cycled from Lands End to John O'Groats, to raise money for a Down Syndrome charity, though I think he skipped by Snowdon.
Well done to Bob, he was on the radio recently saying how he's been walking around with a broken leg for the last 40 years- imagine somebody like Folan doing that, i can't!
