100 MILES IN A WEEK CHALLENGE

05/03/2021

We are planning a 100-mile Cycle Challenge for ‘Bike Week’ (Sunday 30th May to Saturday 5th June) to replace the Centenary 100-mile ride on the 6th June which has had to be postponed.

Peter Seaman is organising the challenge for us and the simple plan is for individuals, or Covid compliant groups, to cycle 100-miles during Bike Week. This could be commuting to work during the week, any number of daily exercise rides or even 20 laps of Draycote Water. You can commit to doing your 100-miles over any period from one day to spreading them over the whole week.

The only constraint is that riders should comply with any Covid restrictions in place at the time.

Nearer the time we will send out details about registration for the event and how to record your daily mileages.
