Well, that’s what a team from Wakefield are doing, all in the name of charity.
The W2P group set off from the city in June for their latest charity bike ride all the way to Prague.

Through their latest challenge, the team will be covering 700 miles to raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK.
They have already raised a massive £6,285 but are still calling out for sponsorship.
The team, who are now over half way through their challenge, said: “Having all lost loved ones to cancer and having seen friends and family go through cancer recovery, including our very own Andrew Illingworth, we are completely unapologetic for the impending harassment for sponsorship, so please dig deep to support what is an incredible cause.
“Every single Penny and Pound makes a difference.”
