British man takes on 4,000-miles-long cycle along UK coast for Prostate Cancer UK

A British man is taking on a 4,000-miles-long cycle along the UK coast - no easy feat. However, Gareth Lyon isn't just a keen cyclist; he's undertaking the challenge to raise money and awareness for Prostate Cancer UK.

Speaking about his ride Gareth explained: “This year I turn 50, and this is also the age where every man should start regularly getting tested for prostate cancer. Because I have a family history of prostate cancer, I have a 1 in 3 chance of getting Prostate Cancer.

"This is why I wanted to use this milestone age as a moment to raise awareness of a horrible disease and raise money for a wonderful charity that does so much to help those diagnosed with prostate cancer."
