Petty Officer Adam Roberts said:"This will be my second time doing this now. This year I made a real effort to make sure I do this, I don't normally get a chance because of the time I spend at sea, but It's such an important thing to do, and it's only made better because it's for Compton Care. Petty Officer Roberts continued:"It can be very very cramped. Submarines aren't made for bikes, or humans really, It's very hot in there and there's no fan, it all adds to the challenge.
All routes start and finish at the Kingswinford Rugby Club in Dudley, with each route branching off to visit different parts of the picturesque Midlands.
