One Ball Rally

Being treated for testicular cancer might seem like enough to cope with for most men. Not Dave Cook though. Just after undergoing treatment he has embarked on an amazing journey to raise money for AICR.

Dave put together an amazing plan to drive from Ormskirk in Lancashire to Istabul in Turkey, in an adventure he called the "One Ball Rally".

The One Ball Rally started on March 21st 2008, and the end of the road was reached on April 1st. 24 year old Dave and his 3 friends were raising money for research into testicular cancer.

Not only was the plan adventurous, but Dave's mode of transport provided a talking point - he made the 2,350 mile journey in a London taxi.

You can watch a video of the trip below.
