Stephen & David Rogers on their London to Brighton Cycle Ride for Neurocare.
In 2006 when Stephen was only 19 he was involved in a hit and run whilst studying in Sheffield. He suffered serious head injuries and it nearly cost him his life. He spent 9 months at the hospital and is still recovering now.
Stephen and David set off from Clapham Common in London and cycled on their specially adapted tandem bike to the finish point on Brighton sea front. In all it took them 8.5 hours.
Thank you, Stephen & David, for completing this amazing challenge for Neurocare.
