Thanks to everyone who supported us! Completed the ride without injury in a damp and cool Schwarzwald yesterday. Thanks too to all the organisers for putting on such a great event
Hi Folks,
Thanks for visiting our JustGiving Page. We're four 50+ guys from Bedford who enjoy recreational cycling and are taking part in this year's
ExtraMile Challenge on 24th-26th September.
The ride takes on 500 miles of [undulating!] roads from Namur in Belgium to Offenbach in the Black Forest, Germany via Lille in France, meaning each cyclist completes 40-50 miles in the saddle each day.
It's a fabulous event run annually in various parts of France by the charity's trustees, with great help from their sponsors.
Last year over £100,000 was raised for over 40 charities as a result of the challenge. Two thirds of the money we raise as a team will go to the
Bedford Hospitals Charity with the remaining third going to the nominated ExtraMile charities.
Thanks for checking out the page and making any contribution that you are able to.
Rob, Richard, Andy, Peter
