After the success of the inaugural MYcycle last year we have launched our charity cycle again for 2015…..with a new route.
This year’s route is 60km (with some big climbs) and we will be cycling and raising money for 2 local charities.....the Forget Me Not Children's Hospice and the Laura Crane Youth Cancer Trust.
The grand depart of this year’s cycle is at the Riverhead Pub in Marsden (Marsden being home to perfect cycling territory), combining the two most important things in any ride – fantastic roads and great food!
Events like this can only happen with the support from brilliant people and this year’s event is being supported by Ramsdens Solicitors LLP, the Mid Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce, Barclays, Huddersfield Star Wheelers and Ossett Brewery.
Entry to the cycle costs £15 (this includes snacks before you start, warm meal when you’ve finished and a finishers t-shirt).
This charity cycle is open to all and can be booked via British Cycling.......#getcycling and support #MYcycle2.
Sinéad Sopala, Director of Marketing at Ramsdens says: “It's going to be a tough challenge but it is all going to be worthwhile as we're raising money for 2 fantastic local great charities. The Tour de Yorkshire has inspired this event and long may it continue.”
Gary Lodge, President of Huddersfield Star Wheelers comments: “The Huddersfield Star Wheelers are proud to be helping out for the second year of this fabulous event. The course is excellent, tough but not too long so we hope that it will encourage all levels of cyclists to join in.
It's a privilege to be raising funds for such great local causes and working in conjunction with some brilliant local businesses and business organisations, I can't wait until the 18th of July!"
