At the age of 90, Robin Hanbury-Tenison is set to embark on a remarkable journey, pedaling 104 miles down the Thames. This effort aims to raise money for a research station located near his home in Cornwall.
The event is scheduled for June 19, 2026, and will see Hanbury-Tenison navigating the challenges of east winds and 31 locks along the route.
As he undertakes this ambitious ride during a heatwave, his determination highlights the ongoing efforts in rainforest activism and fundraising.
