Story

This weekend 18-19th April members of Kingston Wheelers will be collectively attempting to virtually climb the seven highest peaks in the world, a combined elevation of 43,316 metres. We are taking on this challenge from the ‘comfort’ of our own homes, using Zwift or RGT Cycling on our turbo trainers. As well as gaining some serious altitude, we will be raising money for Kingston Hospital Charity to celebrate all the hard-working staff there during this difficult time.

Money raised will support frontline staff working at Kingston Hospital amid the Coronavirus outbreak. Read more about the appeal here: https://www.kingstonhospital.nhs.uk/news-events/news/kingston-hospital-charity-launches-appeal-to-support-staff-wellbeing-during-coronavirus-outbreak.aspx
