Andy Yates, Andy Lerpiniere, Tom Webster and Anna Beckett are cycling 1500km from London to Cannes to raise for money for Club Peloton and Coram, an amazing children's charity.
Yes, all four are keen cyclists but this really is a challenge! 6 days of getting up at 4.45am, spending 12 hours on a bike with limited toilet breaks, braving freezing temperatures and trying to persuade their legs to keep going! It is a challenge which is both physically and mentally exhausting!
Coram, Club Peloton's main beneficiary, is one of the oldest children's charities in the UK. Established as the Foundling Hospital by Thomas Coram over 275 years ago, it was London's first home for babies whose mothers were unable to care for them. Since then it has continued to support vulnerable children across the UK, in particular through their independent adoption service which supports children who may not be able to be adopted through traditional routes. It's a really brilliant charity that we're all honoured to support.
If that’s not enough encouragement to dig deep and help support the cause, we have some special swag for you generous people!
• If you pledge £10 (and up to £25) you’ll receive a limited edition Webb Yates Engineers postcard featuring one of our sketches.
• If you pledge £25 (and up to £50) you’ll receive a limited edition Webb Yates Engineers cycling cap and postcard featuring one of our sketches.
• If you pledge £50 (and up to £250) you’ll receive a limited edition Webb Yates Engineers cycling cap, a postcard featuring one of our sketches AND you'll be entered into a draw to win one of four original framed Webb Yates Engineers sketches!
• If you pledge £250 or more you’ll receive our limited edition cycling cap and an original framed Webb Yates Engineers sketch.
To receive the gifts, just email a copy of your sponsorship receipt to donna.gage@webbyates.com with your postal address and we’ll get it to you after the event.
Please dig deep and help support Club Peloton, Coram and Webb Yates Engineers as we take on this challenge!

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.
