Story
We will be cycling the length of the UK from John O’Groats (North East Scotland) to Lands End (South West England) in 9 days, starting on the 30th August.
The route we'll be taking will be just shy of 1,000 miles averaging over 100 miles per day. This is considered as the ultimate cycling challenge in the UK and amounts to an extreme challenge even for an experienced rider. So given none of the team have any experience in road cycling and have only purchased road bikes in the last month or so, this is going to be a challenge that makes our marathon in Sierra Leone last year seem easy!!!
As a group we have decided to raise money to support Mencap, who do amazing work helping people in the UK with severe learning disabilities to live better lives while also changing the many laws, services and predjudices that exist.
Any sponsorship, no matter how large or small will be greatly appreciated and will contribute to the great work that Mencap carries out”
Many many thanks!
