Story

The mission is something of a challenge by any feet! In June 2012 the Rocky Mountains, Canada will come alive with the 'Ride Across The Rockies' team cycling 1,066km; 24 hours a day; over 4 days! in aid of The Willow Foundation. The idea is to raise funds and awareness of the Willow Foundation, providing Special Days to seriously ill adults between 16-40 years old. The riders and support crew undertaking this challenge are: Andy Batten; Jeff Batten; Craig Jackson-Dyke; Andy Mawson; Martyn Oakey; James Warrick and Glyn Powell With the World Finest National Parks as our backdrop, ‘Ride Across The Rockies!’ will be an fulfilling challenge for all involved, taking in some of the best scenery – namely Canmore, Banff, Lake Louise, Jasper and Kamloops before finishing in Whistler. The challenge will be exceptional climbing to extreme altitudes and crossing some touch terrain. Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
