Cycling mission ends at Argyle

A MAN who has cycled to every football club in England's top four divisions finished his challenge by rolling into Plymouth Argyle's Home Park ground yesterday, having raised more than £10,000 for charity through his efforts.

Danny Brazenell, 45, started off at Carlisle United's Brunton Park on August 13, and has cycled more than 2,500 miles in less than a month, with Argyle's ground being the final stop on his odyssey.

The former taxi driver, from Sevenoaks, in Kent, was inspired to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital after his niece fought a battle with serious illness, and has been pitchside on some of the nation's top football grounds. After arriving at Home Park at around 11am yesterday, he finished his challenge sitting in the home dugout, and said it was a relief after a final journey from Exeter City's St James' Park.
