The Green Mile Man!
'Bash' Wright, age 62, from Whitby, lost his legs above the knee just three years ago, after a yearlong life and death battle, three months of that time being spent in a coma. You can read some of the highlights below, but now, Bash is pushing himself, completely unassisted, from Lands End to John O'groats... and maybe a few extra miles too, just to hit the 1000 mile mark. No backup van, no assistance, and wild-camping along the way - completely self-sufficient. He may allow himself one night of 'luxury' per week, maybe on a campsite or even a B&B, to recharge his electric consumables and perhaps take a 'proper' weekly wash. But, other than that, it's 'Bash Power' all the way!
All proceeds raised from this event will go to 'Whizz Kids' - the UK's leading charity for young wheelchair users.
