Graham Gold Gets On His Bike

House legend Graham Gold revealed this week that he's started training for a 54 mile Bike marathon, to help raise funds for the British Heart Foundation. The 49 year old UK club pioneer took up cycling last year and is raising donations through the British Heart Foundation website.

"Thanks so much for taking the time and donating some wedge as I undertake this gruelling task," he says on site's sponsorship page.

"I used to do Brighton and back in a day on our Sunday Club runs-but that was when I was 16-a little while ago now sadly."

His support of the Heart Foundation reflects his well known reputation as one of dance culture's most passionate advocates which has seen him maintaining his career for over 30 years at or near the top.

"The best job in the world- DJing- doesn't come easy, there's a massive price to pay," Graham told Skrufff in an interview several years ago.

"And the price you pay is this; you forsake your personal life, you dedicate yourself totally to what you want to do and it will happen but if you don't have that dedication, the passion and the ability to take the knock-backs, you won't succeed," he insisted.
