Nick said: "The staff there were fantastic. We received great support during that difficult time.

"The hospice was really like a half-way house between the hospital and being home."

The group rode from Cheltenham to Portsmouth, where they took a ferry to Le Harve, before carrying on their journey to Paris. They plan to make it an annual event.
