What we're doing and why!

This is what we are doing and why. 

Thank you for looking.

Suggestions welcome

So far we have spoken to Compassion in World Farming and Operation Smile. Both charities are delighted to support the 3 Peaks Cycle Challenge and will be helping in every way they can.

Training is going well for the team and each member is working on fitness, something that's pretty tricky this time of year.

Plenty of events coming up for certain members, half marathons, marathons, half iron man triathlon and plenty more random but fun filled ways to get ready for the challenge. If you come across any events that you think would be a fun way to train / to get ready for the event please post on this blog.

Assault causes, endurance events, triathlons... all suggestions welcome!

The Team...

We are proud to announce the team for The 3 Peaks Cycle Challenge!

Each has a page dedicated to them and a small amount of information about them. We'll be telling you a bit more about each person as we go along and they'll be keeping you up to date with fund raising, training and any other information you might need!

The Challenge...

The reason for this blog is so friends, family and anyone else who likes a challenge can follow the progress of the 3 Peaks Cycle Team.

Our aim is to raise as much money for charity as possible. We know that people are bombarded with requests to give money to charity, so we decided to earn it.

The 3 peaks challenge is a popular money raising activity and rightly so. It involves climbing the 3 of the highest mountains in the UK, namely Ben Nevis (Scotland), Scafell Pike (England) and Snowdon (Wales). Well deciding that this wasn't tough enough we decided to make it just a bit more difficult. We decided to cycle between the highest 3 mountains in the UK.

Simply put this will involve climbing 3 mountains and cycling 450 miles in 5 days.

Please check back, there's lots more information to come...
