Last year I was really inspired watching Greeny post his pictures from his Riff Raff Manc-Liverpool Wheelchair Challenge. So much so after a few beers in the Moss Vale I told Greeny 'Whatever your doing this year I want in!
So here we are!
On July 19th I wil be leaving Manchester Piccadilly Station at 6a.m as part of The riff Raff Society's Trans Pennine Wheelbarrow Squad (Team Nutbar). I will be sharing my wheelbarrow with Martin Green who is struggling for fitness now he's forty with tin man knees so I'm having to fine tune my athletic body frame ready to do my fair share of pushing to successfully smash this challenge.
We will be passing through the towns of North Manchester by pavement before joining the Trans-pennine Trail at Hadfield to go up and over the high Pennine peaks before invading Yorkshire (Sheffield). The plan is to arrive at Sheffield Train Station (43 Miles) in time to catch the last train back to Manc-land at 22.24.
We are raising funds for The Riff Raff Society - Casey Westwood Appeal
