“The Cycling Souters” are hitting the road (not literally we hope!!)

The Doddie 500 Cup will be played for between Scotland and Wales on 12 February 2022. Selkirk RFC has entered a cycling relay teams to assist in delivering the match ball from Murrayfield to the Principality Stadium. We will endeavour to cover the 515 miles in 48 hours with feeding stops at various rugby clubs on route. We will be supported by two vans and a two man support team.

The team will have to endure two overnight rides and we have our fingers crossed we don’t have a headwind of rain, sleet and snow during the 48 hours!!!!

The Cycling Souters are:
 David Anderson, Kevin Fairbairn, Gordon Hunter, Allen Jamieson, Tommy Knox, Andy Macdonald, Graham Marshall, Iain Paxton, Kenny Pearce and myself, Iwan Tukalo

The purpose of the charity ride is to raise as much money as possible for the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation. Their vision is a world free of MND and a critical element of realising this ambition is being able to fund vital research into the disease.

The Cycling Souters want to help the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation and any assistance you can give by sponsoring the team is hugely appreciated. 100% of monies raised will go to the charity
