This is the Sunday in the long Bank Holiday weekend

(as well as the Bank Holiday Monday the day after,

the Tuesday is also a Bank Holiday,

Prize Winner 26th September , 2011

Here is our competition winner- Alan Mead.

Alan Mead

Alan has collected and handed in the largest amount -£1133.00,

and therefore wins our £100 Southfork vouchers.

Alan's story is a typical one from the ride;

he was 'encouraged' to ride by friends at Easter time-

and now he has really caught the cycling bug!

His plan for next year- as well as the Devon Coast-Coast Challenge-

is to work towards doing the London to Paris ride.

Well done Alan!

If you have not got your monies in yet, don't worry!

Simply send Emma an email, and she will help you do the rest!

You can email Emma here.

2011 Summary Page

What a great day!

375+ riders rode, raising potentially over £35,000 for the North Devon Hospice!

The weather was 'interesting'.

The route was 'challenging'.

There were hiccups- things for us to learn by.

But best of all- there were people- in their hundreds- riding and smiling.

Thank you.

Thank you to you if you are one of our growing band of supporters.

Thank you if you helped out.

Thank you if you clapped, and shouted words of encouragement.

But most of all-

thank you if you rode.

You HAVE made a difference to real lives of people in the Hospice.
