A TEAM of four RAF men is attempting to set a new world record for the fastest voyage along the navigable length of the Thames by pedalo.

Wayne Brinkley, Dave Canavan, Steve Roberts and Ian Scott set off on Monday from Lechlade and aim to reach Teddington Lock on Saturday. 

They are raising money for the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund and so far have managed to raise more than £7,300.
