Multiple sclerosis (MS)

We are well and truly into spring here in the United kingdom, as the sun shines outside Martin & Patrick have another special guest Dominic Shadbolt.

Dominic has Multiple sclerosis (MS) and is soon to embark on an extraordinary journey across Canada of some 8,000 KM / 5,000 Miles to raise awareness and money for MS Brain Health initiatives.

A coast-to-coast cycling expedition across Canada with the ambitious goal of raising $1 million. This epic ride symbolises resilience, determination, and the power of community, aiming to transform the lives of people living with Multiple Sclerosis and to demonstrate anything is possible with a positive mental attitude.

Dominic tells us about his diagnosis with Multiple sclerosis (MS) at the early age of 28, how he deals with this illness day today and his future going forward.

This remarkable challenge will commence in Hallifax, Canada on the 1st May this year 2025 and will see Dominic Cycle on his A modified I.C.E. Sprint X modified recumbent cycle solo and un-aided 8,000km to Vancouver on the West Coast, dipping his toe in the water both sides at start and finish.

Multiple sclerosis is a disease that causes breakdown of the protective covering of nerves. Multiple sclerosis can cause numbness, weakness, trouble walking, vision changes and other symptoms. It's also known as MS. In MS, the immune system attacks the protective sheath that covers nerve fibers, known as myelin.
