his sons Tom and Adam will take part in a 100-mile ride from Tidworth in Wiltshire to Blackheath in London, reports the Bedfordshire News.<\/p>\n<p>The ride is taking place on June 8th and will be the second year in a row the family has done its bit for the charity.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, the three men took part in the DIY Hero Ride, where participants choose their own starting place, but wanted to join an organised route this year.<\/p>\n<p>Tom Haley said: &quot;Having personally met someone who has lost a limb, we decided we wanted to do something which would help our injured service men and women long term.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>He noted that seeing how much it means to former soldiers makes the effort required entirely worthwhile.<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-801704188-ADNFCR\"
