A big thankyou to you all - Record numbers of cyclists get on their bike for Cycle4Cynthia
A record number of cyclists have taken part in Cycle4Cynthia 2008 – with hundreds of families, friends and businesses all turning out to raise money for charity.
Over 600 cyclists took part in the five, 25 and 50 mile routes on Sunday, October 12th – raising thousands of pounds along the way for the Friends of Cynthia Spencer Hospice and Macmillan Cancer Support.
Although in its fifth year Cycle4Cynthia 2008 had an all new line-up – a new venue in the form of Franklin’s Gardens, three new routes, revised distances, new and staggered start times and a celebrity appearance from Saints player Bruce Reihana, who officially started all three routes.
Sponsorship is now being collected and counted but organisers expect to raise more than last year, when just under 400 cyclists took part and £35,000 was raised.
A huge thankyou to everyone who has taken part and supported Cycle4Cynthia.
