Story
Five employees of John Fowler Holidays, based in Ilfracombe, are undertaking a cycle challenge to all 14 John Fowler Holiday Parks to raise vital funds for Gary Marshall in his fight against a malignant brain tumor. We all know Gary Marshall from his time here as a sales manager at JFH, and are determined to do what we can for both Gary and his family to try to move forward from what is truely unimaginable situation.
The challenge will take place between 21st-25th June 2013 and will cover all 371 miles by bicycle, visiting all 14 John Fowler Parks in Devon, Cornwall and Somerset in the process.
The team members who are taking on this challenge are:
Wayne Golding-Banner
Carrianne Thomas
Sammy Edmunds
Harry Davies
Ollie Fowler
Our Route/Schedule is as follows:
Friday 21st June - Ilfracombe Holiday Park (N.Devon) to Sandy Glade (W.Somerset) - 80 Miles
Saturday 22nd June - Sandy Glade (W.Somerset) to South Bay (S. Devon) - 93 Miles
Sunday 23rd June - South Bay (S. Devon) to Trelawne Manor (E. Cornwall) - 60 Miles
Monday 24th June - Trelawne Manor (E.Cornwall) to Perran View (W. Cornwall) - 87 Miles
Tuesday 25th June (AM ONLY) - Perran View (W. Cornwall) to Widemouth Bay (N. Cornwall) - 51 Miles
The challenge will take place over 4 1/2 days which will mean we have to average 82 miles per day, which for inexperienced cyclists will be quite a long haul! This covers a massive variety of terrain from the flat plains of the Somerset levels to the Undulating valleys of Exmoor and the South Hams.
We hope the we can raise as much money as possibe to put forward to this urgent cause. Please give generously and show Gary your support!
