Two years ago Matt Ford gave me ( Steve Wells) £50, as he did with all the sponsors for The Poole
Pirates, with the £50 I was told to do what I wanted with it but with the
premise of getting a good return on the £50.. So with that in mind I
asked a few (12 ) close friends, some not so close to do a sponsored bike ride, which turned out to be a race on a bike, in fancy dress.. It was a short 14 mile ride from my offices in Springbourne to Poole Civic Centre and back along the beach front to my offices. The race was good fun for all those that took part and the money we raised was outstanding, just over £6,000 for a bunch of unfit blokes..
Two years later and here we are again, same £50, same great charity.. Just a few more miles, quite a few to be fair. I have managed to get 14 blokes including myself to do the London to Brighton MTB ride.. Its 75 miles, with a few extr thrown in as we have to ride from the train station to the start line..! Been told its an easy ride, just 3 hills, been told its a killer..
Whatever it is, its all for a great cause.. So please ladies, gents boys and girls, dig deep and sponsor us, its a team page, the grand total going to Julia's House, the rider with the most money raised will be doing the ride in fancy dress.!! Thanks for visiting our team fundraising page.
