Men Raise Over £20,000 For Breast Cancer

One group of men decided to raise money on their summer holiday this year, as part of their annual Tour de Lard, run for the past three years to raise money for breast cancer.

Raising over £20,000 for breast cancer, by driving a fleet of pink ‘old bangers’ across France through towns with breast-related names in northern France, before ending up in the Breton town of Brest, the group of men from Bristol completed a number of challenges on the fundraiser, while they drove

The Tour de Lard was organised by Charles Gutteridge, a Mercedes technician from the village of Rushden, along with the rest of the team.

“We bought three old bangers for £300 each and I spent weeks working on them. Another one of the lads spent weeks organising the route, and another booked all the campsites.

“We drove down the back roads and there were a series of challenges we had to do. On the ferry over we had to find anyone who was wearing pink and take a picture with them,” Charles explains.

It was the third time the group have taken part in the Brest or Bust challenge which left Bristol on 2 June and returned on the 20 June.

The group previously raised over £20,000 by driving reliant robins over the French Alps.
