Karl Burke set off on his bike last thursday from Perth on a journey he hopes will see him visit all the racecourses in England, Scotland and Wales. The 2,500 mile trip will see him visit the 60 tracks over a 39 day period, hoping to be at Newton Abbot on May 17th.
'It had been on my mind to do some charity work for several years, but such is the commitment needed to train racehorses it was never possible. When my
ban came into place it was an ideal opportunity to put my time to good use. Having not ridden a bike for over 20 years I probably underestimated the size
of the challenge when I first thought of it!!!
"I have been training most of the winter either on a bike or in the gym. Time spent cycling has dramatically stepped up over the past month.
I have followed the good work that Barney Curley and DAFA have achieved for the children and families of Zambia and always wanted to try and do something to help. In fact I approached Barney several years ago to see if I could go out and help on some of DAFA's projects, but for various reasons that did not materialise. DAFA was always high on the list of charities I wanted to help and hopefully with some hard work and people's generosity I can raise a sum of money for DAFA that will make a meaningful difference to the ongoing projects

will miles rogers be riding also (like he did the public)
Does it say Miles Rodgers will be riding a bike as well? If it doesn't i can safely presume he isn't.
Another pathetic attempt at re-invention, just like his side-kick and hero, Barney Curley.
Mr Burke just can't resist the temptation of removing money from the public's pocket.

will he be slowly away at the start by any chance?
The point of being banned from racing is lost on this tw@t
perhaps he could give some tips out along the way, or even open a few betting shops with tommo. all for charity of course!
If they are that worried about the people of Zambia, why don't they live there. They could help the people enormously. Why is it the public (who never get any credit) who always have to fork out?
Either live there or donate out of your own pockets, you pathetic hypocrites.

Are we to be subjected to other disgraced buffoons from Racing's Banned List trying to re-invent themseves?
Who's next?
Will "King Kieron" be delivering meels on wheels to old age pensioners in Barnsley?
Is Fergal going to be emptying the garbage bins from Great Ormrod Street Childrens Hospital?
Human parasites, the lot of them.
