Riders needed for Boris Bike Kidney Cancer Challenge

Postby jwfkidneycancer » Thu Mar 06, 2014 5:35 pm

We are pleased to announce our KIDNEY CANCER BORIS BIKE CHALLENGE which will take place on Sunday 29th of June, a week before Le Tour De France come to Cambridge. We will have 15 Barclays Cycle Hire Bikes for our cyclists to ride from Cambridge to London following the 99mile route of third stage of Le Tour de France:

The route starts on Parker’s Piece, by Gonville Place, where the peloton will ride through the historic city centre via Regent Street and Sidney Street before turning left at the Round Church.
The riders will then travel past the world famous colleges of St John’s, Trinity and King’s as they cycle along King’s Parade and Trumpington Street before leaving the city via Trumpington Road.
The peloton will then ride through the rest of Cambridgeshire via the A1301 taking in the beautiful villages in the south of the county including Trumpington, Great Shelford and Hinxton.
The Tour will then leave Cambridgeshire, travelling on to Saffron Walden and through Essex towards London to finish on The Mall in front of Buckingham Palace.

ENTRY

Teams of four and/or individual cyclists can enter for the bike ride and will commit to raising a minimum of £1000 sponsorship for each bike. The money raised will help us provide continuous support for kidney cancer patients and their carers. The event is being lead by a cyclist who has many years experience in such events, having previously taken part in competitions both here in the UK and the rest of Europe.
The bikes are quite heavy and therefore if you intend to cycle solo or take part as a team member, you should be a regular and experienced cyclist or regularly take part in other forms of physical exercise.

Please contact the charity for more details via email office1@jameswhalefund.org or phone 01223 870008.
