¹ú²úÊÓƵ’s RideLondon 2016 Success
We want to say a massive thank you and congratulations to all the ¹ú²úÊÓƵ fundraisers that took to their bikes to cycle 100 miles in the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 yesterday. For their months of training and fundraising, the ¹ú²úÊÓƵ team are grateful to Peter Kelsey, Theo Bertram, Scott Thomson, Kirstie Orpen, Victoria Bell, Graham Reid, Nick Williams, Emma McNeice, Tim Beal and Konrad Caulkett.
It was an early start for the riders donning ¹ú²úÊÓƵ orange and white, who rolled out with a sea of cyclists from the Olympic stadium in Stratford between 6.00am and 8.30am. The event, which is part of London¹ú²úÊÓƵ™s annual weekend of cycling festivities, saw nearly 27,000 cyclists pedal their way out of London, through Surrey, and back into the capital before the iconic finish on the Mall.
The ¹ú²úÊÓƵ riders rose to the challenge posed by testing climbs over Box and Leith Hill. Nonetheless, the course was negotiated superbly by the team and our riders made it to the finish with the support of the thousands of fans that lined the route.
RideLondon 2016 was a fantastic event, and we are already looking forward to next year. If you are interested in taking on the challenge for ¹ú²úÊÓƵ in 2017, please email danny@theirworld.org for more information. The 2017 Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 takes place on 30th July 2017.
Sponsorships are still coming in for the ¹ú²úÊÓƵ team and so far they have raised a fantastic amount ¹ú²úÊÓƵ“ so once again a big, big thank you to our team! The money that they have raised will help us to create a brighter future for every child.
