TEN years after hanging up his rugby boots, former Cornish All Black and current Deputy Head of Sixth Form at Launceston College Steve Rush has decided that it is about time for a new physical challenge.

Over the May half-term break Steve intends to attempt the 'End to End' cycle ride from John O'Groats to Land's End.

Choosing to spend an extended period of time perched on a bicycle saddle is enough to make the eyes water at the best of times, but just to add a bit of spice to his adventure, Steve has set himself the target of completing the ride in just nine days.
