Story
We try again! In 2020, two days before Cycle to Mipim was due to depart, my thighs/calves and bum were as ready as they would ever be, the event was cancelled as countries began locking down to stop the spread of Covid-19.
Two years on and we try again - I’ve secured my place on the team and I’m committed to another winter of training all to raise as much money as possible for this fantastic cause. I would like to thank all those who sponsored me and the team two years ago - I feel I’ve left you short changed as I didn’t manage to complete the event and I am truly grateful for your support. To thank you we will be including all the company names who sponsored us last time on our team shirts, and if you do have a little charity budget left, we would be grateful of any donations to help us reach this year’s target.
All those who didn't manage to help last time, now is your chance! We'd welcome new company sponsors and will reward you with a prime spot on our shirts that we will be designing for the event. Please do get in touch if you are interested in helping in any way.
I will try to keep you all updated with our training and in the meantime, stay safe!
