Sam Giles to cycle solo Lands End to John O' Groats
Sam Giles, a Junior with Sarum and SW Squad, is to cycle solo from Lands End to John O'Groats, averaging 80 miles a day. Inspired by the sad loss of two classmates, he has taken two years to plan this sponsored event and hopes to raise £2000 for two cancer and leukaemia charities. If you were pushed out of the mud at this years JK, Sam was probably one of the youngsters who helped you!
