Grandfather with cancer aims to cycle 1,700 miles
A grandfather with incurable cancer plans to cycle around Rutland Water 100 times, three years after he completed the same challenge.
Frank McEwan, from Uppingham, first cycled the 1,700 mile distance in 2021 to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
The 77-year-old has now decided to repeat the challenge in aid of Leicester Hospitals Charity, as he receives chemotherapy at Leicester Royal Infirmary.
Mr McEwan tells reporter Trent Hutson he hopes to complete the feat faster than he did three years ago and is "very excited" to get started.
