St Ann's Hospice cares for around 3,000 patients, their families and carers every year who are affected by cancer and other life limiting illnesses. 

The work they do in supporting people through incredibly difficult times will help inspire us when The Hulks take to the starting line at the National Cycling Centre, Manchester, at midday on Saturday May 6th.

140,000 pedal strokes, 25,000 calories and 24 hours later; having cycled  in rotating 30 minute shifts, we will (hopefully) cross the finish line, and The Hulks will have smashed the Cyclone 24 challenge. 

We are going into this event with two main aims-

1) To raise as much money as possible for the incredible people at St Ann's Hospice

2) To complete the most laps out of any team and win the event (The Hulks are a competitive lot!)

Our first aim is where you can help. Every pound you can donate towards our target will help keep us going as the time slowly ticks by. 

*** If that's not enough, if we manage to reach our fund raising target and we win the event, Murray will get the 'Hulk on a Bike' image as a tattoo. What more motivation do we all need?***
