Penny-farthing cyclist raises over £1,000 for RSPCA from 205-mile cycle ride
A local cyclist has ridden a penny-farthing 205 miles across the country in a day from the east coast of Southern England to Burnham-On-Sea to raise funds for the RSPCA.
Bruce Walsh took on the challenge during the recent Chase the Sun bike ride in support of the RSPCA.
He was riding with fellow cyclists Issy Pritchard, Tracey Pritchard, Gary Payne, Hamish Pringle and Christopher Musgrave-Brown as a team.
They cycled from the east coast of Southern England as the sun rose and didnât stop until the sea was seen again before sunset, 205 miles to the west in Burnham-On-Sea.
