As a novice rider - straddled a bike for the first time since starting to wear long trousers in September 2016 specifically to do the Cycle to MIMPIM ride in 2017. Prior to the ride thought I would ‘Just Do It’ and then have multiple listings on eBay!!!! LOL. WRONG!!!! - Club Peleton and the connections made on Cycle to MIPIM had a lasting effect on me and my bank balance!!!! Now with 2 bikes and two drawers of lycra (which for a middle aged man is legal so I found out!!!!) came to the conclusion that there was a NEEDED rather than WANTED to experience those 6 days again... Yes I've forgotten the very very early cold mornings, the long days in the saddle and only remember the real and long term professional and personal relationships that developed and came from the ride.
Once again raising money for CORAM, the little known though thoroughly deserving charity who look after vulnerable children and look to place them with a new and permanent adoptive family.
Therefore going through a little personal hardship is a small price to pay to help the children of CORAM.

"RAFFLE Tickets - well done Chris! And incredibly impressive that you are taking it on for the Northern Power Leg AND the full 6 days of C2M! I'm sure your 199.7km training rides will see you in good stead.

Raising Funds For
Club Peloton
Club Peloton is a fundraising charity which uses cycling as its platform for challenge events, bringing together a love for the sport and the opportunity to raise money for great causes.
Our main grant recipient - receiving two thirds of all funds raised - is Coram, the UK’s oldest and first children’s charity that has been supporting vulnerable children for over 275 years. Their flagship service, Coram Adoption, is the most successful voluntary adoption agency in the UK., finding loving and secure homes for some of the most vulnerable and hard-to-place children in the country. They now help more than 1.25 million children and young people every year, and this would not be possible without the generosity of our riders
Club Peloton will be supporting Coram’s vital programmes, with a specific focus on Coram’s unrivalled and pioneering adoption service. For more information please visit: www.coram.org.uk.
