The next challenge - Wakefield to London on a bike!
It’s two years since ‘From Surgery to Surgery’ - the original bike ride that started The Danny Porter Foundation. It’s been long enough to forget the pain that comes with so many miles in the saddle, now the lasting memories are of camaraderie, joint effort and achievement. As a result, we getting back on our bikes and we’re going to do it all again. This time it’s for the Wakefield to London Cycle Challenge. With over 200 miles of road cycling in three days over 30 amateur and non bike riders will work our way down the spine of the country.
“Many of the original riders have fond memories of the first bike ride– as they have signed up again” says Dan “A challenge like this, for such worthy causes really brings out the best in people. I’m sure it will be tough, but worth all the effort.”
This time we are all the proceeds from this ride will be distributed equally between the Second Chance Headway Centre in Wakefield and Weston Park Cancer Charity in Sheffield. Over 30 riders will be taking part in the event, hoping to raise in excess of £20,000 for these two amazing charities. More information will be available soon. If you would like to sponsor the team of riders – you can do it here.
