RBL Charity Cycle Ride 2008 · 14 January 2008

The RBL are the UK's leading charity providing financial, social and emotional support to millions who have served and are currently serving in the British Armed Forces and their dependents.

Story

For a third year in a row, the cycle adventurers will be off on their travels again raising money for the Royal British Legion's poppy appeal. This year’s trip is both bigger and better... bigger in terms of our target, number of cyclists and support crew and better because we've finally managed to convince someone to drive and carry our bags.

We'll be coinciding our trip with this years 'Veterans Day' and the team will cycle through five countries in five days (England, France, Belgium, Germany and Holland). The dates for the event are Thursday 26th June to Tuesday 1st July.
