Riding To The Top

Ther was no debate who should receive our Outstanding Achievement award so inspirational was Michael Broadwith’s record-breaking ride

- James Shrubsall

The fact Michael Broadwith is only the third man to set a new men’s bicycle mark for Land’s End to John o’ Groats in 35 years tells you most of what you need to know about how difficult it is to do. Then factor in that Broadwith, a maths teacher from Hertfordshire, is an amateur rider. With no multi-million pound team set-up to absorb the financial stresses and deal with the logistics, it was all down to Broadwith and his support team of family, friends, and friends of friends.
