A team of five cyclists, including Jo Cann, are heading into the finishing straight of their training for a 325 mile ride to France.
Jo, the wife of IFP chief executive Nick Cann, who suffered a stroke last year, is leading the Paris cycle challenge.

Former
IFP President Julie Lord is also among the crew, which is aiming to raise more than £20,000 for the Stroke
Association.
Team Nick has been putting in the miles in their spare time to get ready for the epic ride on 7 May.
Jo said: "I think we'll get there, it's a team effort we'll all spur each other on. If we raise £20,000 that will make a massive difference."
