Teams
We welcome team entries on all our one-day
rides and cycling holidays, minimum 6 riders,
no maximum.
Make a day of it and help raise vital
funds for charity, ride through beautiful countryside,
get fitter, lose a few pounds and feel a
real sense of achievement.
Take a team photograph and get some positive
press coverage for your company. Many of our
events finish in parks, with refreshment tents,
live bands and a hospitality marquee at the finish.

During the filming of the wedding for C4’s ‘The
Family’ Shay managed to fit in some training for
the ride.
“I cycle regularly, I’m not a gym person. This
was our second year. We had a lovely lunch en
route. My favourite part of the day was cycling
along the Thames in the sunshine, it’s such a
lovely route.
We all really enjoyed ourselves and we’ll definitely
be doing it again in 2010!”

“For the last eleven years the bike ride has knitted
it’s place into the Marshall’s calendar and
they are very supportive, contributing to transport
logistics & T shirt costs. In 2009, 78 of us
raised over £6,000 for Breakthrough.”

“We invited our clients from the Design,
Architecture and Construction industries to
join us on the ride. We paid their entry fee and
provided a big picnic at the Finish. It was great
day out and we felt a huge sense of achievement
- 60 of us raised over £11,000 for Breakthrough.
After the ride we held a prize-giving for the top
fundraisers. It was great ‘client entertainment’
and a good way to say thank you to our clients.”

"48 of us cycled for the third year and raised
£17,000 for Christies. Our friends at Eddie Stobarts
transported our bikes. We hire fork lift
trucks nationwide, I’m MD of the company, I’m
18 stone and a non cyclist, so I had to train for
the ride! It took me three days to find the saddle
after the ride!!!!"
