Over 400 cyclists helped make this year’s Cycle Challenge another roaring success!

 

The sun was shining as hundreds of cyclists set off from Warwick Myton Hospice on either a 50km or 100km ride around Warwickshire and the Cotswolds.

 

On return to Warwick Myton Hospice, cyclists received a medal as well as a complimentary burger, and a massage from Fire and Earth Sports Massage.

On the 100km ride, participants had the opportunity to take part in our timed hill climb, testing both themselves and their bikes! The two fastest riders, being crowned King and Queen of the Myton’s respectively were, Paul Aldridge and Catherine Rigney.
