Story

Hi everyone,

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

As part of our local sports and leisure committee run by FPC (Future Pension Centre) HASSRA, we regularly organise social events and charity events.

This year we will be attempting our biggest challenge to date by completing a cycling mission for charity.  Our chosen charity is the Bobby Robson Foundation.  Linking nicely with the football theme, our challenge will see us setting off from St James's park (Newcastle United football stadium) on the 19th of May 2012 and finishing on 24th May 2012 at the Emirates (Arsenal FC's stadium, London).

The cycling route is as follows:

St James’ Park - Stadium of Light

Stadium of Light - Ewood Park

Ewood Park - Reebok Stadium

Reebok Stadium - DW Stadium

DW Stadium - Anfield

Anfield - Goodison Park

Goodison Park - Eastlands

Eastlands - Old Trafford

Old Trafford - Britannia Stadium

Britannia Stadium - Molineux

Molineux - The Hawthorns

The Hawthorns - Villa Park

Villa Park - Wembley Stadium

Wembley Stadium - Loftus Road

Loftus Road - Craven Cottage

Craven Cottage - Stamford Bridge

Stamford Bridge - White Hart Lane

White Hart Lane - Emirates Stadium

We estimate that it will be cycling over 460 miles in 6 days.

Any donation however big or small will be greatly appreciated and will certainly help keep our motivation; not only through our training, but during the week of the challenge which will no doubt have some great highs and some not so welcome lows. The Bobby Robson Foundation is a charity close to many peoples hearts so lets raise as much money as we can.

This page will be updated as and when we can get more information, and throughout our training, so watch this space.......

Cheers!

Phil, Matt and Drew
