On the early morning of Saturday 6th May, 15 friends and colleagues are cycling approximately 100 miles from Vicarage Road Stadium in Watford to the King Power Stadium in Leicester. There, we hope to find light relief watching the Leicester City v Watford FC Premier League fixture at 3pm. 

The next day, Sunday 7th May, with very sore legs (and maybe a few sore heads if Watford win), we will be cycling back to Watford again. Over the course of the weekend, our group of amateur cyclists will be covering over 200 miles in total. 

We are cycling in memory of Sam Keen, our friend and Watford season ticket holder who passed away following a battle with malignant melanoma, a form of skin cancer, five years ago. 

The Sam Keen Foundation raises money to fund cutting edge treatment into melanoma at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London. So far the Foundation has raised £465k, funds two research fellows and improves the services offered to cancer patients at the hospital.

Many of our cycling team are complete novices, and have had to put in many miles in preparation for this ride. Please support us generously, as every pound of sponsorship will help to carry us through.

Our team of cyclists is:

Darren Whitney

Paul McGowan

Ben Robson

Simon Morris

Steph Kaim-Caudle

Darran Purnell

Dave Everington

Lee Scragg

Mike Cadd

Chris Wright

Craig Foster

Stuart Foster
