Story
This is the first time I have been involved in the Coast to Coast cycle that has been organised for a number of years by colleagues working within the BP Office in Aberdeen. The cycle will be taking place from the 25th-27th May this year.
The main principles of the event are:
- To raise significant funds for the less fortunate through Charities with a personal link to riders and/or have a local connection
- Promote sustainable transport and commitment to fitness
- A challenging ride that will create a real sense of acheivement
This year the chosen charities are:
MND Scotland - MND Scotland is the only charity funding research and providing care and information for people affected by Motor Neurone Disease in Scotland.
Spinal Injuries Scotland - SIS is the national voluntary organisation concerned with new and long-term spinal cord injured people, their relatives and friends, along with those involved in the management, care and rehabilitation of the injury
Aberdeen Vasculitis - Aberdeen is a centre of excellence for Vasculitis in Scotland, so any funds raised will go to directly to the medical research charity in Aberdeen and make a difference, its not a high profile disease so they struggle for research funds all the time.
If you can spare a few pounds it will help these very worthy charities and be extremely motivational for me throughout the event!
