Coast to Coast Charity Bike Ride |
On the 8th, 9th and 10th of May a team of cyclists and support crew will be embarking on the 140 mile bike ride from Whitehaven to Tynemouth all in the aid of charity.
Last year a team managed to walk the Yorkshire 3 peaks and over the year successfully raised nearly £6,000 for the New Manchester Childrens Hospitle. This year the challenge is bigger and better but so is our target for raising money for our chosen charity 'Cancer Research UK'.
The planning has started and we all have been delegated jobs in readiness for the big event. We have over 11 members of staff who have agreed to cycle the 140 miles, plus there are other friends and family joining us on the way. The emphasis has been placed on training and there have already been a couple of practice rides, if for nothing else than just to get used to sitting in the saddle.
A Just Giving website has been set up so that you can make donations on line at www.justgiving.co.uk/ijscoty. We will also be pestering people with sponsorship forms in a real effor to beat last years impressive total. We have also got a couple of other fund raising ideas up our sleeves which we will also be rolling out nearer the time.
Please keep watching this space as we keep you informed of how the fund raising and preparations are going.
