James Keable and Linton Nightingale
Two cyclists completed their 2000 mile bike ride to Istanbul raising over £3000 for charity.
James Keable and Linton Nightingale, both 26, set off on their epic 10 week journey which took in the sites of countries such as Holland, Austria and Romania and even included a brief stay with the German ambassador in Vienna.
The pair were raising money for children’s cancer charity CLIC Sargent and FARA, which funds two disabled orphanages in Romania, and said their total is currently £4000 but they hope to reach the £5000 target.
