Story

Our event is the Power Of Ten Year (or POTY for short!!). Our aim is to cycle 100 miles a day, across 10 European countries, over 10 days totalling 1000 miles, raising 1000's for charity. Starting at 10am on 01/10/10 and finishing on 10/10/10.

We will be keeping a blog to update everyone on our progress:

Starting from England, we will travel through Holland > Belgium > Luxembourg > Germany > Switzerland > Austria > Liechtenstein > Italy > France.

As I'm sure you will all agree this is no small task. It will be a very gruelling and physically demanding challenge, requiring a great deal of training and the team are all working hard to be ready in time for the start date.

Our chosen charity is the Meningitis Trust. They provide 24hr support to everyone impacted by meningitis, conduct research into after effects of the disease and increase awareness by producing and distributing free information to the public and health professionals. Any donation will be gratefully recieved and will go along way to helping charity (not to mention encouraging us over some steep climbs on the way!).

So please dig deep and be a POTY sponsor!
