Football fan cycling to every away game this season

[Glow worm]

This caught my ear earlier on the radio (and sorry if it has been posted elsewhere- I couldn't find anything). Adam Faiers, an MK Dons fan (I know - bear with it though) has been cycling from Milton Keynes to every away game this season and plans to cycle to the lot. Today he cycled to Carlisle and on Tuesday, he's heading to Pompey! Chapeau sir! Linky

Crazy bloke they are not even a proper football team fair play for the money raised though top man.

Are MK Dons saving up for an away coach??

 

[mark st1]

Yes a tandem

MK Dons can FRO, but chapeau to the lad for doing it. There's a pair of Newcastle fans planning something similar for next season.

There was quite a big segment on this on the regional news yesterday. I think they said 12 hours one day then 6 hours the next, from here (MK ) to Carlisle.

Pretty impressive stuff anyway

Ha!

Ironically, the man on the right has made a billion from the sports & fitness industries.

The first bloke should play centre half.By the time the forwards got round him,they would be too tired to shoot.

Well played that man. I hope the fixture list is kind to him.

Never heard of MK Dons. Do they play League or Union?

He was on my Local tv news last Friday evening.
Was going at a good pace, riding a Giant, good taste!
Good luck to him, he's doing it for charity.

A chap from my team (Shrewsbury Town) did the same thing a couple of years ago, to raise money for Autism

He had a few interesting experiences including collapsing on the way to Gillingham, being rescued in the Peak District (on the way to Rotherham) suffering from exposure in the snow, and being arrested at Barnet due to them not letting him into the match because he arrived after half time and he jumped over the turnstile to get in!! Talk about jobsworths or what
