Mile Meet Up Total & Next Event Update!

A HUGE thank you to everyone who came to our Mile Meet up in Nottingham last week.

We did a huge 32 miles which is more than a marathon between us all! 

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! 

NEXT EVENT:

We already have our next event planned and we're really excited to tell you that we'll be taking Team Bones to the Nottingham Relay for Life! To rack up as many miles as possible and to bring Team Bones and our supporters together, we're taking on the 24 hour, over night, relay for life! 

We'll be at Harvey Hadden Stadium on Saturday 18th July - the relay starts at 1pm and will finish at 1pm the next day. We can have as many people as we like (and as possible!) on our team as long as someone is on the track at all times over the 24 hours. 

You can either join our team for the whole 24 hours and sign up as an official member of Team Bones for the weekend which is £15 (towards Cancer Research UK), or you can just drop by at any time before 10pm on the Saturday or after 8am on the Sunday to do a few laps. 

We'd love to have as many people there as possible to make the over night sleeping a bit more fun and a bit more bearable so please do message Sarah or Luke to sign up for the full weekend. 

Get your trainers, tents and sleeping bags ready!

Grand Total: 1072.34!

Moore Large donate Forma and Moda bikes!

Just a little update and a blog to say a HUGE thank you to David and the team at Moore Large in Derby who have sponsored us with a bike each - they'll be an incredible help to us both while we rack up the miles and with the weather getting better, it's perfect timing. Luke's already taken his Moda bike for a spin while I took my Forma bike out today in the sun! We had a really interesting afternoon last week at the Moore Large show room at the launch of all the new ranges of bikes. 

How great are our new bikes? And how brilliant is it that they're actually blue to go with the Bone Cancer Research Trust theme?!

Thank you to everyone at Moore Large for supporting us along the way - be sure to keep an eye out for photos while we're out riding!
