WHO needs the Tour de France's yellow jersey when you can have a yellow and red one?

Adrian 'Horace' Parsons is chair of Bude Surf Life Saving Club (SLSC) and will be sporting the club's distinctive colours as he embarks on a 1,250 mile cycle tour of the 47 English Surf Clubs.

The adventure begins on Saturday, July 20 to raise money for Bude Surf Life Saving Club and Surf Life Saving Great Britain.

The tour will mark a celebration of the club's 60th year, Adrian's 60th birthday and his tenth and final year as chair of Bude SLSC.
