Prudential RideLondon – John Batchelor completes 100 mile charity bike ride

On Sunday morning John Batchelor joined over 25,000 participants in the 7th Prudentiual RideLondon.

The annual cycling event was founded following the 2012 London Olympic and Paralympic games.

John was raising money for Pitt-Hopkins UK, a charity helping raise awareness of a rare genetic condition that affects his young son.

101 miles, several energy gels, numerous Surrey Hills including Leith Hill and Box Hill, 0 punctures and 1 sore backside later, John emerged into the sunshine down The Mall in under 6 hours of riding time and raised over £5,000.

Thank you to all those who donated and supported John, and to Alasdair Campbell who rode with him.
