Accrington Observer

July 11, 2025

A WOMAN and her friends have raised more than £2,000 for charity after doing a gruelling challenge of cycling more than 215 miles in memory of a DJ.

Bob “Rupindar” Singh Thind, from Baxenden, suddenly and unexpectedly passed away peacefully at home on Sunday, May 28, 2023, at the age of 53, surrounded by his loved ones.

His daughter Grace cycled on a tandem bicycle with no suspension or modifications from her dad's birthplace, Reading, to Manchester with her friend Rory and their van crew Gem and Imogen.
