Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Over the last 3 years we have organised crazy adventures on our bicycles. Always on our own, with no support.
This year we have decided to take it to the next level and ride 800 miles from Woking, UK to Alicante, Spain in just 8 days, adding in some routes which emulate stages of the Tour De France. Our motivation is boosted with the aim to fundraise £800 for Arthur Rank Hospice, a charity close to home.
Why Arthur Rank? We have a close friend who works at the charity and has showed us how the charity helps terminally ill people make their remaining months, weeks or days as comfortable and easy as possible. One of the areas they help is by organising a persons last wishes, getting married, doing something special or just time and support. This is just a small part of what the charity does for so many people in the Cambridge area.
The Riders!!
Kieren Clark: A keen cyclist and all round nutter. Always looking for the next challenge to push himself. Likes to motivate/annoy the team with silly motivational quotes.
Jordan Adam: Started cycling 3 years ago to help with his weight loss. Having achieved his goals the Sheene Mill director decided to let Kieren persuade him to ride on these crazy adventures.
James Robinson: A racing driver who has worked with Kieren over the years. He uses cycling for training and to stay fit. As someone who always wants to push himself, he was keen to join Kieren and Jordan on this epic adventure.
