Chilterns Cycle Challenge
Rennie Grove Hospice Care has opened registration for its 2015 Chilterns Cycle
Challenge.
Next year’s event, which takes place on 22 March, will mark the 5th time the Chilterns
Cycle Challenge has taken place. Once again it will be supported by television presenter
Fern Britton.
The course, which starts and finishes in Aylesbury,
is suitable for everyone from those new to cycling,
people who want to ride through the beautiful
Chilterns countryside and the more committed
cyclists. With a 10k, 35 mile or 75 mile route to choose
from there should be something to suit all abilities.
Entry to the 10k route costs £17, £20 for 35 miles
and £30 for the 75 mile option. Child entry is just £10
and under 5’s are free. The entry fee includes a t-shirt,
medal and water along the way.
Last year the Chilterns Cycle Challenge attracted
more than 500 participants and raised around £40,000
to support the charity’s nursing and support services
for local patients with cancer and other life-limiting
illness. £32,000 funds one of the charity’s specialist
hospice at home nurses for a year.
Ruth Proudfoot, Events Manager at Rennie Grove
Hospice Care, said “This could be a great opportunity
to buy a place for someone as a Christmas gift and
is the perfect incentive to get fit in the new
year! We are hoping 2015 will prove even more popular than previous
years, so don’t delay; sign up now to guarantee your place.”
