The Cyclopaths have signed up to the 30/30 Challenge from the 29th April to the 28th May which entails each of us riding at least an hour a day every day for 30 days come rain or sun.

We will not be doing this alone though as there will be a total of 165 riders taking part, some as individuals and some as teams of up to 4. We are riding as part of a team of four friends Stuart Butler, Tim Falla, Mark Colver and Matt Collas as team “Cyclopaths” !

Why are we doing this you ask, and that is to raise money for Les Bourgs Hospice, which is a very worthwhile charitable cause in Guernsey.

This is the 10th year that the event has been held and thus far over £500,000 has been raised and this year the 165 riders hope to be able to raise more sponsorship than any previous year, which will be another challenge.

Each rider has committed to raise a minimum of £900 but as a team we are aiming at £5,000, so have two challenges!

Remember: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 25%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.
