We care for veterans across Scotland to ensure the best possible quality of life

Story

 Two veterans cycling from Rome Coliseum to Edinburgh. Leaving the Coliseum on the 1st August 2016 and arriving in Edinburgh on the 20th August 2016.

Ourmotivation for this stems from being former members of the Royal Scots; andhaving completed the challenge of cycling 950 miles from Lands End to JohnO’Groats in 2014, we felt we needed to make our next fund raiser morechallenging!

We will undertake a gruelling cycle for 20 days covering between 70 to 92 miles per day arriving back for a homecoming celebration on the 20th August at Erskine Gilmerton 

The challenge will take us through Italy, cycling up over the Swiss Alps,France, Germany, Holland and then into the UK via ferry from Amsterdam to Newcastle.
