READY TO ROLL: John Cooke and Dr Timothy Roberts, part of the Moving Hearts Appeal. Right, as their patients see them and, above, as they'll be when they hit the road.
As staff members of the cardio-respiratory department, both cyclists understand the benefits of the echo machine.
Dr Roberts, consultant cardiologist at the hospital, will tackle the 100-mile Black Rat Cycle around North Devon on September 12.
And Mr Cooke, an echo machine technician, is planning a three-day sponsored bike ride from Dover to Lands End in September in aid of the appeal.
