THE Lesley Roe memorial riders, who finished their Southamp­ton to Truro charity cycle on Monday (September 2), passed through Launceston on Saturday (August 31).

The riders are cycling in memory of Lesley Roe, who sadly died after fighting against Leuk­aemia for three years. Lesley was project co-ordinator for Boots, the national pharmacy chain, for the south of England.

Lesley's husband David and brother Lee Collett, organised the 210 mile, four day ride, along with 40 friends and family members.
