British Wesley Hamnett traveled from Glasgow to Manchester, an estimated 200 miles (321 kilometers), on his little girl's bike, to contribute to charitable work.
On September 14, Hamnett wrote on Twitter, "From Glasgow to Manchester on a pink little bike, if this tweet gets 10,000 retweets and 1,000 pounds (about $ 1289) within 48 hours, if we don't get to these numbers, I will use a regular road bike. "

Hamnett began his 6-day trip on September 16, traveling at a rate of 35 miles per day, and documenting the days of the trip through his personal Twitter account, to encourage more people to donate, as the money goes to 4 charities in Manchester.
After returning to his family again, the 37-year-old father tweeted, "The journey from Glasgow to Manchester on a pink little bike is over! But we don't stop there, we still have a chance to raise money."
