Peak 2 Peak Cycle Challenge - Saturday 11th September 2010
You will be climbing nearly 2,500 feet over the course of the route, but rewarded with beautiful scenery and the glory of knowing you have raised much needed funds for Disability Snowsport UK. Entry to the event is £15, and we ask that participants raise £100 in sponsorship.
There are plenty of scheduled rest and water stops on route and our team will be on hand all along the course. We have a post event BBQ organised for a well earned meal after the event and a chance to catch up with everyone you met along the way. Transport is available for participants and their bikes from Glenmore lodge to the start of the race at Ben Nevis car park on the day of the race.
Chris Boardman Olympic cyclist and MBE, speaks out in support of the Peak 2 Peak cycle challenge:
‘Disability Snowsport UK is a fantastic charity with their main focus on raising funds to enable anyone with any disability access to the slopes the same as able bodied. When I heard the Peak 2 Peak event was taking place on the 11th September I really wanted to offer my support to encourage participants to take part in this challenge to raise funds to support skiers with disabilities.
‘This is an amazing opportunity to take part in an event of this kind. It will be a unique experience for all involved whilst raising much needed funds for Disability Snowsport UK.'
Disability Snowsport UK is a people-centred organisation with a unique sense of purpose: that anyone regardless of their disability can take part in and enjoy the thrill of snowsport. Disability Snowsport UK provides exciting and life enhancing activities for individuals or groups who require adaptive equipment and/or special instruction and support.
