A bereaved dad from Diss has raised more than £2,000 after taking on an eye-watering 400-mile bike ride from Wales to Lowestoft. Ian Doe completed the gruelling ‘West to East’ challenge to raise funds for East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH), which cared for son Callum after he was diagnosed with an aggressive grade four brain tumour on Christmas Eve 2018. “It was an incredible experience,” said Mr Doe, of Wilbye Avenue. After a hilly start, the group cycled 104 miles on the second day, 103 on day three and 109 during the final stretch across East Anglia. Their overnight stops were in the Carmarthenshire town of Llandovery, Evesham, in Worcestershire, and St Neots, in Cambridgeshire, before arriving in Lowestoft on May 28.
