Andrew Gordon’s amazing round-Britain charity ride on Avon Tyres has raised more than £11,000 for The Royal Marsden Hospital. Gordon – a sufferer of Neuroendocrine cancer – bravely undertook the 4,800-mile journey during August and September of 2011 on a Honda XLV1000 Varadero shod with Avon Distanzia tyres. He rode through England, Wales and Scotland on a journey that began and ended in Portsmouth. Gordon says, “It was a love of motorcycling that has helped me through the tough times and this trip was so memorable for many different reasons.
