A very quick turnaround on this video to help Damian's SaddleSore Adventures spread the word about the 1000 mile bike ride in 24 hours next month, raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support. A truly worth cause and we are pleased to have been able to support this challenge and the fundraising campaign. Great to film at Roy Pidcock BMW with BBC Radio Derby on site for interviews with Damien. Please take a look, donate and share if you can!
