Over the weekend, 82-year-old Bob Montgomery won hearts across Australia after he and his grandson — 18-year-old Tom Malcolm — finished their mammoth 5300km charity cycle to raise funds for motor neurone disease. “We’re really, really pleased his last few days on Earth were some of his best.” The Montgomery family has invited people wishing to continue Bob’s legacy to visit his website, where donations can be made for MND research.
