A number of Rotarians, friends and family took up the challenge of riding the distance from Seaburn to Yarm at the southern end of the District, then north to Berwick at the northern end and back again, a total of 250 miles. All this was achieved in less than 7 hours on Fathers' Day in aid of Prostate Cancer Research.

Despite some variable weather, this was achieved without getting wet or risking life and limb, by using the facilities kindly offered free of charge by Seaburn Leisure Centre. It turned out to be a very 'Family of Rotary' affair.

The participants obtained sponsorship and raised a total of £175.00, which the club is to match from its Benevolent Fund, enabling a total of £350.00 to be donated to the charity.
