Father & Son conquer New York Cycle Challenge
Trevor lives in Newbury and Richard, his youngest son, lives in New York City. When Richard invited him to take on the epic 5 Boroughs Cycle Challenge in New York City, Trevor saw the perfect opportunity to raise some funds for Naomi House & Jacksplace.
Having previously supported the hospices at the Reading Half Marathon around 10 years ago, Trevor was keen to fundraise for Naomi House & Jacksplace once again.
On 7th May along with 32,000 other riders, the father and son team cycled 47 miles proudly sporting their Naomi House & Jacksplace cycle jerseys.
Trevor and Rich received wonderful support from their friends and family and raised a fantastic total of £671 which will make a huge difference to the care that the hospices provide.
My son invited me to New York this year to do the 5 Boroughs Cycle Challenge with him and I thought it was another excellent opportunity to support a great charity. It made it an extra special day to think we have also provided a little bit of help to those who need it.

‘It was a privilege to support Trevor and Rich in their fantastic fundraising effort for the hospices. They were very determined to make a difference and the challenge looked incredible – what an achievement! It was so wonderful to see our hospices represented in New York City!
The whole experience has been brilliant. To do a ride like this with my youngest son Rich was such a moment for me. We did very well on getting around and managed to miss the pot holes and other riders
