THE CHALLENGE

A team of seven cyclists are riding 970 miles from Lands End to John O'Groats to raise money for charity. The team leave the Isle of Man on Friday 20th May and will start their ride from Land's End the following day. They expect to ride around 100 miles a day to reach John O'Groats on May 30.
Five riders are raising money for The Children's Centre in the Isle of Man with funds raised going to fund the charity's many projects in the Island. The five include two riders who work for the charity - Chief Executive John Knight and Residential Team Member Jim Murphy.
Also riding for the Children's Centre are Mark Humphrey of Long and Humphrey Advocates who is a director of The Children's Centre, Isle of Man Cycling Association Chairman Steve Shimmin who works for MAC financial and Andy Parker who is a personal trainer. Paul Warburton and Chris Palmer who both work at Coutts are raising money for the NSPCC which is the company's chosen charity in the UK.
The team will be supported by a volunteer dirver in a minibus which will carry the team's food and equipment.
The team would like to thank all those who have pledged donations for the two charities and added a thank you to Shoprite for sponsoring their cycling jerseys and Bikestyle cycle shop for providing energy bars, drinks and cycle spares for the trip.
