The event is a 25 mile cycle, each participant dictates their own pace. Route starts and finishes at Boggs Holdings, Pencaitland. There will be support vehicles, a first aider and marshalls on the route. The cycle is open to cyclists of all abilities. Under 16's are welcome, however, must be accompanied by an adult.
All cyclists will receive a medal and a participation certificate. Whilst it is not a race as such, the person to complete the route in the quickest time will receive a shield. All we ask is that each participant raises a minimum of £25 sponsorship money for the charity.If the number of entrants allow it we are hoping to get the faster competitive cyclists to start the route half an hour before the more leisurely cyclists. This will enable particiapnts who want to go for the quickest time to get of to a good start and also let the leisure cyclist to take part at their own pace. Obviously the more entrants there are the more competitive the cycle will be for keen active participants.
All funds raised for the charity get spent on health promotion, information and support services.
