One month. One goal. One great cause. A whole lot of fun!

At Raise (West Herts Hospitals Charity) we're pulling on our lycra and grabbing our crash helmets for the Super Scanner Cycle Challenge. We're raising funds for a new Interventional Radiology super scanner that will transform pinhole surgery and save more lives in our local community.

Lives like Mike's. Mike was rushed into Watford's ED after his blood pressure plummeted and he started to lose consciousness. His story just shows the importance of having the right equipment and the right team in the right place at the right time, and how the new super scanner could help save even more lives like his.

Will you join us in saving more lives like Mike's?

* We're riding 10,000 miles in total in May - just choose how many of these miles you want to ride, where and when.

* We're hoping to raise £10,000 altogether - you choose your own fundraising target

* We're one awesome community aiming toward one shared goal - cycling 10,000 miles to raise £10,000 in May.

Whether you're new to cycling, an enthusiastic novice, or an expert on two wheels, join us and make the challenge your own.

Set your own targets

Will you join other participants in collectively cycling 10,000 miles to raise funds for our Super Scanner? You can set a distance that suits you and you've got the whole of May, so make a time commitment that fits around your diary!

Perhaps you can team up with family, friends or people from work. Why not challenge colleagues from a neighbouring department to match your target - a little inter-team rivalry is a great motivator!

You can register as an individual or a team and we'll send you a participants' pack with everything you need to know to get inspired and out on the road.

Will you raise £100, £500, £5,000 or even £10,000? The choice is yours!
