Richard Brimble, last year's beaten finalist in the Somerset Men's Unbadged Competition and the Men's Captain for Prattens Bowls Club, was recently part of the support crew for the Help for Heroes Hero Ride.
Richard said: "The Big Battlefield Bike Ride 2015 started from Paris to London with 260 bike riders to cover a total of 310 miles, taking in War Cemeteries and some of the D-Day landing shores of Normandy.
"People and service personnel from America, Canada, Australia, Britain and France took part, with amputees and wounded service personnel represented from all of the countries. Some participants were riding hand bikes, some recumbent bikes and some on normal upright bikes, with all raising funds to support our injured service personnel from all areas of war.
"Nearly £800,000 was raised from this event. Along the way, we heard some amazing stories from injured service personnel, telling everyone how hard it was to recover from their injuries and the support received from Help for Heroes and from other charities in other countries."
As part of the ride, Richard drove a series of bicycles to Paris and then acted as support for the riders on their journey to London.
Graeme Smith, from Prattens Bowls Club, said: "Richard has frequently been the hero for us on the green, but on this occasion, we are even prouder of him than usual."
