The countdown is very much on for a Bannockburn man set to take on a gruelling cycle in memory of his nephew’s passing more than 40 years ago.
Ed Delaney will be in the saddle for a mammoth 85-mile journey across the winding roads of Highland Perthshire in the Etape Caledonia race on Sunday, all to raise money for the Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity.
The Etape Caledonia allows cyclists to take part across various routes of 40 miles, 55 miles and the longest effort set to be completed by Ed, with the aim to push even the most experienced cyclists to their limits.
