Fat Bottomed Boys & Girls Help Raise Nearly £100k

 Fundraising has now closed for our tenth charity bike ride, with more than £92,000 raised for charity.

Our Fat Bottomed Boys & Girls team of around 50 cyclists recently completed a 300 kilometre cycling challenge travelling from Zurich to Munich in three days, with the team facing more than 2,500 metres of climb.

The effort raised funds for the Douglas Macmillan Hospice in Staffordshire which provides care services to children, young adults and adults alike that have life-limiting illnesses throughout the Staffordshire area.

Our sincere thanks go to all those that supported the event, not least our official sponsors, all those that donated and, of course, the cycling team itself.
