Bob Paterson often talks to his son Dale when he is out cycling.
He finds it is one of the only times he feels close to him, because he is no longer around.
Such precious father-son moments were snatched away from the Oxford firefighter when 13-year-old Dale was killed in a car crash on August 18, 2005.
As Mr Paterson struggles to come to terms with the unimaginable, he has channelled his grief into something positive by organising a Ride for Life'.
The trip will see him and colleagues Owen Pates and Steve Jordan cycle from Land's End to John O'Groats from June 1-18, giving school talks along the way about seatbelt safety.
