That the Parliament congratulates cyclist Mark Vance on completing the 863 mile challenge from Land’s End to John o’ Groats in a remarkable four days and 21 hours; recognises that his epic journey involved climbing 46,000ft of hills along the way; notes that the cancer survivor from Newton Stewart in Dumfries and Galloway has previously raised £6,500 for charity, and wishes him every success in future two-wheel adventures, including taking part in the Trans-Atlantic Way Ultra Race in Ireland in June 2022, that involves cycling more than 100 miles.
