Total Fitness gym in Whitefield are getting in the saddle to help Alison Turner raise much needed funds towards lifesaving surgery.

As the Breakfast Show sponsor, the gym asked Gemma, Matt & Mike to get on their bike to help rack up miles on the road to Barcelona.

Alison Turner, known to family and friends as Ali, suffers from a complex neurological condition involving her skull and the second vertebrae in her spine, and risks dislocating her neck on a daily basis.

The 32-year-old’s partner, Nick Zabel, set up a GoFundMe page in October last year to help raise the vital funds to get Ali to Barcelona for the surgery, which isn’t currently available in the UK.

The team at Total Fitness Whitefield, alongside their customers, members of the public and the Key 103 Breakfast Show, are aiming to cycle the distance from Bury to Barcelona on exercise bikes in the gym’s foyer – all 1,853km of it.

See how they got on...

No surprise who won!

Listen to the Breakfast Show with Gemma, Matt & Mike weekdays from 6am.
