On Saturday May 30th Perth FM went along to the High Street to support the efforts of those taking part in the Fair City Fitness Challenge. Linsey was there, microphone in hand to interview organisers and volunteers who were raising money for CHAS, the Children's Hospice Association of Scotland, and specifically the work they do at Rachel House in Kinross.
CHAS brought people in with buckets and the people of Perth gave generously as they watched the cyclists notch up the distance from Perth to Big Ben. They even managed to cycle so far they doubled back on themselves by about 50 miles or so!
Well done to those taking part, we hope a lot of money was raised.
Right now you can hear a podcast of interviews from the day when we reported between 2 and 3pm, during the final stretch of the event, and the gallery page has been updated with pictures from the day.
It was a busy, hot day in Perth on Saturday but that didn't deter the sweaty cyclists who hope to put on the event again next year, only bigger and better!
