Ride the Amsterdame! Help us to raise money for Marie Curie Cancer Care
In the first week of June we're taking some female cycling novices from York to Amsterdam, riding over 250 miles to raise money for Marie Curie.
Cycling from York Designer Outlet to Hull past the Humber Bridge, we'll jump on a ferry to drink, dance and sleep our way to Rotterdam. Once in Holland we'll cycle along the coastline for miles, passing sand dunes, windmills, canals and fields of blooming tulips. We'll pass through the historic city of Harlaam to finish in the unique city of Amsterdam. Then we'll turn around and ride back again!
