A CHARITY cycling syndicate have clocked up £23,018 before even setting out.
The Peaky Climbers from Wantage, who are planning to ride 700km across the French Pyrenees and Alps in September, have raised that with fundraising warm-ups including a seven-hour spinathon and a fundraising gig.
This weekend the eight challengers are attending a three-day cycle training camp in Mallorca.
The team are raising money for the Caring Cancer Trust in memory of Grove teenager Maisie Norton who died in October 2015 after a six-year battle with cancer.
They will also be donating funds to the British Lung Foundation.
