Story


Six of us plan to do a UK Coastal Challenge Motorbike ride to raise funds for Cancer Research. The ride itself is nearly 4000 miles completed over 11 days. Its definitely going to be a challenge but we are psyched to be doing something for such a good cause. 

We are hoping to raise as much as possible for Cancer Research. We will have a support vehicle with us in case any of our bikes encounter issues also to carry all our camping gear... Oh there's no fancy hotels along the way! We will be camping in fields, we will be reaching out to our followers to offer us sustenance and perhaps a shower!! We are trying everything to get sponsorship from all types of companies to cover our costs but we need your help to make sure that this trip is a success.

You want to know about us? Well we range from 18 - 60! Our experience ranges from novice to practiced rider, a few of us are on 125cc motorbikes so there will be absolutely no motorways to hurry the journey along. We will be riding an approximate 350 - 400 miles a day which equates to 9-10 hours riding including stops for fuel and sustenance. We have plotted a course through in excess of 128 towns so you may find we pass you by... if we do please feel free to offer us any support you can!!

We have a Facebook page where you can keep up to speed on our activities, https://www.facebook.com/ukcoastalchallenge2015/timeline

During the ride, the FaceBook page will be updated with videos and pictures of our progress. 

Dates:
Start Tuesday 20th Aug 2015 
Finish Saturday 30th Aug 2015

At some point, every single person reading this will be touched by Cancer; whether it be a personal experience or that if a friend or relative we will all see the devastating effect it can have on not only those who suffer but those around them. Cancer Research has saved millions of lives by discovering new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer. Over the past century, their researchers have made consistent progress in the fight against cancer, and survival rates have doubled over the past 40 years. Please help us to help them continue their fabulous work.
