PCs Dave Earl and Paul Wenham raised more than £3,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support
Sutton town centre PCs Dave Earl and Paul Wenham raised more than £3,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support after taking part in a four-day, 480km cycle ride from London to Paris.
To make it a little more challenging, the officers decided to complete it by tandem.
The officers arrived in Paris on July 7 as part of a 100-strong fundraising cycle group having set off from Blackheath on July 4.
The officers admitted to having lots of bruises in "nasty places", sore legs and a very beaten up tandem.
"However, it was well worth it to raise so much for such an important charity," said PC Earl.
