Between them to date, they have organised a variety of events including jumble sales, cake sales, a ‘come dine with me’ evening, and a horse racing night. With still a way to go to their fundraising targets, they have decided to take on a sponsored bike ride. e duo are planning to cycle the ‘Way of the Roses’, a 170 mile (274 km) coast-to-coast cycle route in Northern England, from Morecambe in Lancashire to Bridlington in Yorkshire, which they are hoping to achieve in 3 days at the end of July. Scott and Rowan will be supported by their Mums, who will be pitching tents and providing food and drink along the way. Rowan comments: “We’ve known each other since pre-school (approximately for 12 years). We’re firm friends so can count on each other for this challenge. We are passionate about bikes. One of us in particular searches eBay regularly for parts or even a new ride and between us we’ve owned over 10 bikes since we’ve been riding. We’re really excited about our challenge, if our craziness/determination/ambition has inspired you; please consider sponsoring us!” To sponsor Scott and Rowan visit: https://gofund.me/ea6af9f6f Local Scouts To Take On ‘Way Of The Roses’ Cycle Route Ride, Refuel and Relax At New Forest Off Road Independent o road motorcycle specialist and café, New Forest O Road, on Lyndhurst High Street, combines the perfect blend of bikes and co ee.
