Led by Cat Channon a group of Games Industry luvvies will be donning lycra and gel to cycle over 500km from Gamescom in Cologne (Germany) to Brighton (United Kingdom).

We are a mix of people who can cycle and people who hope they can cycle. We leave Cologne at 5.30am on the 18th of August and aim to arrive in Brighton around 11.00am on the 21st of August.

There are 8 of us on the trip and we are aiming to raise £5,000. More would be cool.
