Tony Parsons the Vanishing Cyclist

The Monday Night Revue

Show Notes

A 63 year old starts on a 100 mile charity bike ride through the Highlands of Scotland. It was a big undertaking but Tony Parsons had done epic charity events before having walked Hadrian's Wall and the West Highland Way.

Somewhere between the Bridge of Orchy hotel and Tyndrum he vanishes, no sign of him or his bike or any evidence that Tony was even there.Three years go by and there is nothing. Then in 2020 a meeting on Tinder would unravel the whole case.
