Century Cycle Challenge Cyclists go the Distance to Make a Difference

Waiting for the 300+ riders at the 3rd feed station ( The Black Horse, Castle Rising - 84 miles out) was members of the JHMT events team including Val and Angie, who along with the staff from the Black Horse, helped serve a never ending supply of coffee, tea, cake, bananas, high energy sachets for water bottles, gallons of water and boost bars along with words of encouragement for the final 16 miles to the finishing line at Brancaster Staithe.

Thanks also the all the staff and licensee Julie at the Black Horse who did everything possible to make everyone most welcome. Also to Chris, Polly and all the support team including the event management team, mechanics, first aid, timing officials, sponsors and other who working together pulled all the strings behind the scenes for another memorable 9th event. Finally to those 'hearty' souls totalling 300 + who put so much effort into completing the 25, 50 and 100 mile courses all in the the aid of helping charitable causes including Hope and JHMT in 2015.
