Description

Interview with 27 year-old Tim Fouraker from Purley in Surrey, who has been making the final preparations for his five-month cycle ride across the Andes in South America to raise money for research into multiple sclerosis. Fouraker says he hopes to raise at least 50,000 pounds as a result of his ride through Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, and Brazil. He says there are two main reasons why he chose to help multiple sclerosis charities, apart from the fact that he knows sufferers of the disease. Interviewer is Tim Knight.
