Two researchers from the University of Exeter put elf before beauty to prepare to cycle 350 miles from London to Paris for the charity Alzheimer’s Society.
Drs Mark Tarrant and David Llewellyn launched their fundraising bid in full festive style, as they burned off the mince pies through starting their training for the epic cycle challenge.
Dr Llewellyn knows how tough preparation can be. He had planned to join a team of six dementia researchers on the ride last summer – but had to withdraw after breaking his wrist when he fell off his bike during training.
180 guests joined Exeter Leukaemia Fund (ELF) for their Enchanted Ball at Exeter Castle. The event was sponsored by Equinix and Brewin Dolphin and hosted by celebrity gardener Toby Buckland.
