Cyclists in the saddle for three day bike ride from Turf Moor in Burnley to raise funds for Barry Kilby Prostate Cancer Appeal charity
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
Pedal Against Prostate Cancer riders will set off tomorrow (Thursday, May 16th) and cycle to Kendal, then ride over 200 miles around the Lake District before returning to their starting point on Saturday, Burnley Football Club.
All the money raised will go towards the Barry Kilby Prostate Cancer Appeal (BKPCA) which has saved many lives since its first testing day was held at Turf Moor in 2015. Since that first event, up to now over 10,000 men have been tested and 10 percent of those had a raised PSA level which could be a sign of prostate cancer but can also be a sign of other conditions that are not cancer including an enlarged prostate or urinary tract infection.
