Story

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of 30/30 bike challenge, beginning on Saturday 13th May, Andrea Nightingale, Richard Freeman, Mark Torode and Tim Loveridge will be cycling to Les Bourgs Hospice in Guernsey from Les Bourgs in Southern France (taking in a slight detour to climb Mont Ventoux).  With support vehicles manned (and womened!) by Mira, Phil and Denis, the intention is to cover the 600 miles back to St. Malo in 6 days (and in time to get back to Guernsey for the BBQ).

We are setting a high target of raising £10,000 through both corporate and individual support.  TrustFord have been fabulous and lent us a plain white transit for the trip, which we hope to emblazon with company logos - so please contact any of us via the email address: pootleists@gmail.com if you'd like to get involved or alternatively all donations are most gratefully appreciated.  All business sponsors will also have their details added to this site over the coming weeks.
