As a direct result of events that happened earlier in 2023, 59-year-old Adam Sims is taking on the challenge of cycling the UK mainland coastline – a journey of around 4,500 miles.

Still uncertain as to whether he can achieve all he has set out to do, Adam is preparing his Giant Defy bike to set out from Angmering on Thursday, September 14, for a journey he expects to take around 45 days to complete.
