C2C - Whitehaven to Tynemouth · 23 August 2013

Dove House Hospice provides specialist care in Hull and East Yorkshire to adults with a progressive life limiting illnesses. With the patient and their family at the centre of the hospice's care, a range of services are provided to ensure each patient gets the right support and care they need.

Story

Four of the “exceedingly deluded, Aunt Bessie’s Sales Team are to head off on the well peddled “Coast to Coast” . The 148 mile journey will take us from Whitehaven on the West taking in some lovely locations but also some daunting hills. One being “1 in 5” [Yes 20% incline up to 2056 ft]  to end up on the coast near Tynemouth some140 + miles later.

We are hoping to raise some money in the process while also benefiting personally from the good exercise no doubt in the wonderful Summer weather (!?*) and good company. It may not be of Marathon proportions but it will be still be a worthy challenge and result in some personal pain along the way.  See the hills here

We are choosing two charities, to raise all the money that we can for them with target of £1766 being £3 for each mile we each do and appreciate if you can assist us. We are riding for Dove House Hospice in Hull and also Cancer Research UK and any contribution will be greatly appreciated. They do great work and have touched us and those close to us. We appreciate your support as we try to beat out target.
