On Friday 11th December at 3pm ProVo2’s Tom Newman will make the first pedal on his 24 hour indoor cycle. Raising money for The Princess Alice Hospice (www.pah.org.uk), Tom will be aiming to cycle continuously for the twenty four hours with one eye on the newly set world record of 448miles…..
Tom’s challenge is different to most other 24 hour cycles as he is ‘selling’ 30minute of 1hour slots on a second spin bike alongside him. Tom comments ‘I wanted to raise money for the PAH and felt that by selling slots it gave people the opportunity to take part in the fundraising. A marathon is a long way for most people but 30minutes of cycling really isn’t’.
The event is being held at Horsley Sports Club, East Horsley, Surrey, KT24 5AH where there will be various events happening throughout the 24 hours such as live music and a DJ on the Friday night and a cake and tea sale throughout the Saturday morning for local cyclists, walkers etc. Please do make the effort to head down to not just support Tom but also help raise funds for a superb charity that needs your help.
