Star Wars Character Runs Seven Hills For Motor Neurones Isle Of Wight

Jay dressed as Star Wars character (biker scout)

In a bid to raise funds for Motor Neurones Isle of Wight a man from Northwood is biking up and down seven hills today (Sunday).

Jay Bilsby has already raised over £2,000 for the charity but told Isle of Wight Radio he "wanted to do more".

Dressed as a Star Wars character, he biked 406 miles with a support team to six locations across the country that appeared in the movies.

Jay said he did "very little training" and was "completely unprepared mentally".

Speaking to Isle of Wight Radio, he said:

"However, we made it and we are so pleased we have done it.  My team were amazing, the support from them was just first class. Great team. I could talk about it all day. It was the most amazing thing I ever did"

In a bid to raise more money for the charity Jay will complete a 'seven hills' challenge this morning - dressed as a character from Star Wars.

He will set off from Freshwater at 9.30am.
