Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
On May 31st the 6 members of Keele Athletic Unions Committee will be completing a 385 mile cycle ride all in aid of raising money for Friends for Leisure. The cycle will begin at Keele, where we will cycle to 18 different BUCS competing universities, including Bangor, Lancaster and many more, we will then make their way back and finish at Keele. 5 out of 6 of the members completing the cycle have never used road bikes before training for this event making it an even bigger feat. The cycle will take place over the course of 6 days, finding the team facing up to 90 mile days.
