Truro or Bust: Football Fans Cycle for Charity
18 Apr
Summary
- Three friends cycled over 500 miles for charity.
- They raised over £14,400 for cancer and MNDA.
- A signed team scarf was raffled to boost funds.

Three friends embarked on an arduous 500-mile cycling journey from Carlisle to Truro, a trip that spanned six days. These self-described "non-cyclists" undertook the "Truro or Bust" challenge for charitable causes.
As of Friday, April 11, 2026, they had raised more than £14,400 for the Motor Neurone Disease Association and Cancer Research UK. One fundraiser was initiated by a fan with incurable oesophageal cancer, who asked for his team's scarf to be signed at the match.
This signed scarf was then raffled to further increase donations for the charities. The daughter of the fan expressed that the cyclists represented her father "in spirit," highlighting the personal significance of the ride.
