North Wales Coast Cycle challenge · 21 June 2014

We're dedicated to beating blood cancer. We fund research and support those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. The day we beat blood cancer is now in sight and our researchers are determined to finish the job.

Story

Our first official North Wales Coast Cycle Challenge was held on Saturday 21st June 2014. We had a total of 26 riders taking part on this fundraising ride from Deeside Leisure Centre to Porth Eirias, and the return journey (a total of 72 miles).

The day was beautiful and sunny, and we were honoured that the chairman of Flintshire County Council, Mrs Glenys Diskin, was able to attend and officially open the ride.

The riders all left with much enthusiasm, and the first two arrived in Porth Eirias in 2:29 hours, with others arriving at intervals after.

After a well earned break and a quick bite to eat, the riders returned to Deeside Leisure Centre to receive their medals.

 We are still being supported by IPM Russell Limited, who, when all monies have come in, will fund match what has been raised. We are truly grateful for their support which is amazing.

Bryon Jones, of Deeside Leisure Centre, played a major  part in this ride, with his support and dedication we are pleased the final amount is more than the ride he organized last year. This year, we had our regional representative Claire Horrex attending for support.

We’d like to thank the Toning Suite at Deeside Leisure Centre for fundraising for this event…more information and photographs to follow shortly.

The ride was kindly supported by Radio Deeside (www.radiodeeside.com) – special thanks to Barry Dougdale and Loose Lady Lynne for entertaining everyone!
