THIS month, father and son, Nigel and Graham Pearce, from Bude, will be cycling 750 miles across France to raise money for charity. They will start by cycling from Bude to Plymouth and take the ferry to Santander in Northern Spain and will then spend the next ten days cycling back through France before catching a ferry back from Roscoff.

To make the journey even harder, they will be carrying everything they need on their bikes and will not have any back-up or support and will be camping out each night.
