Steven Phillips completes coast to coast cycle ride


Steven Phillips has just completed a coast to coast cycle ride in aid of two worthwhile charities. Beginning at Southport on the west coast of England he cycled east towards Hornsea. Steve began his "epic" journey at 5:12 completing the 187 miles, at midnight after an uphill sprint for the last hour and a half!

Besides a broken chain, occasional cramp, numb hands, sunburn, a headache and feeling sick (from eating too much chocolate), Steve was able to smash the time of 40 hours he set last year (on a transpenine route) by finishing in 18 hours 48 minutes. Should there be a next time Steve plans on replacing his mountain bike for something more capable (and lighter), and hopes to get to the sea by teatime, in time for a pub lunch and a pint.

Steve expects to raise around £200 for Bliss (premature babies charity) and Asthma UK.
