This week, I had the great fortune to talk to Ed Peppitt about his travels around England and Wales. These included cycling 3,500 miles, spotting over 300 lighthouses, and raising over £15,000 for Shift MS.
Ed’s book, ‘The Beacon Bike‘, is absolutely brilliant. In it, he shares the highs and lows of this huge undertaking. His love and appreciation for the lighthouses jumps off of the page, and he doesn’t shy away from the emotional hardships which come with such a challenge. (Ed hadn’t ridden a bike in twenty years before completing this endeavour!)
I’ve been keen to get Ed on the podcast for a while, and I am so pleased with how this episode turned out. You can listen here; I’m sure you’ll find Ed just as inspiring as I do!
