A team of riders are about to embark on the second Cogs4Cancer sponsored cycle ride. This incredible journey will take the 16 riders from Ancona on the east coast of Italy to Antibes in the south of France taking 6 days to complete the 825km.
The nominated charities are Cancer Research UK, Clinique Tzank in Mougins and the Children’s cancer unit at the Lenval Hospital in Nice.
The Spectrum IFA Group are proud to be sponsoring Lee Much and wish him, together with all the other participants every success.
The cycle ride is completely self-funded by the riders which means that 100% of the sponsorships money received goes direct to the charities concerned – YES 100%
Sustenance en-route will be provided by Gourmet Deliveries and the riders will be looked after during the event by sports therapists & masseuses Liz Wright and Chelsea Good providing post-ride care and with Marine Medical providing extensive medical kits and first aid support.
The riders can be followed in real-time on www.cogs4cancer.org thanks to the specialist satellite tracking devices provided by Yellowbrick.
