Story

We are planning to do 20-30 minute rotations over a six hour
period at the Newport Velodrome. The existing record is 147.077 miles so we will need 25mph plus over 6hrs.

This charity event will help to raise monies for the children
who suffer with cancer as cancer is a disease that everyone will know somebody who has this at some point in their lives. By supporting this excellent charity, they can continue to supply bikes, adapted trikes and give support to bring children as much joy through cycling at this difficult stage in their young lives. So please help us to help them by donating to this worthy cause.

Approximately 2,400 children and young people (up to, and including the age of 18) are diagnosed with cancer each year in the UK. We are passionate about helping all of these families along this difficult journey. We help children to regain their physical fitness and mental wellness by giving them new bikes, adapted trikes and specialist support during treatment and into recovery. Since the charity began in 2005 we have awarded over 8,000 bikes and trikes and we can only continue to do this with the support of our amazing fundraisers!
