This year the challenge was harder for the pundit after he had two operations over the past year.
Leading up to the challenge he said: "I've had two operations leading up to it but I'm back on the bike now. I had a knee replacement last September and I had a cage put in my back last December.
"The operations went well.
"I want to help everyone that's had cancer and I want to help their families who are going through it.
"It's a horrible place to be in but hopefully one day all the cancer charities all over the country and the world really if we can find a cure for it that would be the most amazing thing.
"We are just doing our little bit really because I know how difficult it is whether it's yourself, family or friends."
