Dave's nomination story

He's an inspiring cancer survior who's now one of the top endurance mountian bikers in the world. Recently cycled into Guinness Book of Rec.Our work on mountainbikes involves a wider group of aspiring cyclists and friends in projects that have given them a different outlook on what they can do with it: But it has never been anything other than an honour to have them volunteer for jobs that help our cause. Basically they make me look good as they have been instrumental in my success to date. Allied to this my long distance (quite hardcore) ultra-endurance mountainbiking rides have been widely reported in the press meaning that people from all walks of life can see what is possible-even after illness. If just one person buys a bike or goes for a longer walk just because they read about what my friends and I have managed then It's been time well spent. www.davebuchanan.co.uk
