Story
Get ready to laugh, wince, and most importantly, cheer on some truly magnificent (and slightly mad) Manland dads as they embark on an epic cycling quest! These brave souls are trading their comfy armchairs for bicycle saddles, all in the name of our brilliant Manland Primary pupils.
The Challenge: Coast to (Other) Coast - 171 Miles of Pure Mayhem!
Our fearless foursome, officially known as the "Saddle Sore Survivors", are gearing up for a grueling 171-mile bike ride. They'll be pedalling from Bridlington on the east coast all the way to Morecambe on the west. This isn't just a scenic jaunt, folks! They're facing down strong westerly winds (because apparently, they like a challenge) and tackling a whopping 2,000 meters of lung-busting ascents. Think less "leisurely cycle" and more "human-powered rollercoaster." It's going to be a true test of their quads, their resolve, and their ability to stay upright!
Meet Our Dads (Before They Get REALLY Sweaty):
- Damian, Dad to Jenson in Year 3: Hopefully, Jenson's boundless energy will somehow transfer to his dad's legs!
- Enrique, Dad to Eric in Year 4: We're pretty sure Eric's got a secret stash of energy bars for his dad.
- Peter, Dad to Henry in Year 4: Let's hope Henry's drawing skills extend to mapping out the least hilly routes for Peter!
- Mateusz, Dad to Otto in Year 2 and Ernest in Year 4: This man is tackling double dad duty and double mileage. Give him ALL the snacks!
Why Are They Putting Themselves Through This?
Good question! Our dads are taking on this monumental, slightly masochistic challenge to raise essential funds for Manland Primary School pupils. Every single penny raised will go directly towards making school life even more fantastic. We're talking new equipment to spark curiosity, exciting educational trips that create lasting memories, and generally just making sure our kids have the best possible learning experience. Your support will truly make a difference to every single child at Manland.
How You Can Help (Before They Realize What They've Done):
Every single pedal stroke, every gritted tooth, every sigh of relief will be fuelled by your incredible generosity. Please, dig deep and consider donating to support our amazing dads. More importantly, your donation directly supports the future of our Manland Primary pupils. No matter how small, every contribution helps us reach our goal and provides our children with the best possible learning journey.
Let's show these dads some serious love (and send them some ibuprofen)!
