Thanks for visiting the GM Fundraising Hope 66 Just Giving Page.
The Hope66 team includes 15 cyclists from the glazing, construction and related industries. Each rider will have spent almost a year training for this 2,616 mile marathon.
Supporting the cyclists will be a number of support crew who will provide the necessary and crucial back up for the arduous 14 days of cycling across the most famous road in the world.
The team will be Setting off from Chicago and will attempt to complete the journey in just 14 days to Santa Monica.
Riders will have to tackle temperatures in Arizona in excess of 40 degrees, the 8,000 ft height of roads in the Southern Rockies and high winds in Kansas.
