VISTAPLAN ARAND - CHARITY CYCLE RIDE
Our charity cycle ride takes place on Saturday the 10 May when we cycle from Hinckley to Skegness – a distance of 100 miles!
Last year we raised over £30,000 for cancer research, this years target is a more modest £3,000.
This years ride has been set up to raise sponsorship for the DLRAA. This is the Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland arm of the Warwickshire & Northamptonshire Air Ambulance. The air ambulance team provides a vital role in offering emergency medical services at the scene of accidents and en-route to hospital resulting in many more lives being saved. For further information about what the air ambulance is about then please visit their website by clicking here.
Here's a photograph of me about to set out on my training today - I just hope it's a little cooler on Saturday!
If anyone still wants to join us its not too late, It is open to all abilities and support is arranged all along the route, The set out time will be at 05.30 Saturday morning, last year times varied between 4 and 9 hours, Although I personally would be pleased to cross the finishing line as I have only been practicing for 4 months!
