Super Cyclists get on their bikes to Newcastle!

0

A GROUP of 30 volunteers cycled from The Halliwell Jones Stadium to St James’ Park, Newcastle, to raise funds for both The Warrington Wolves Charitable Foundation and also Rugby League Cares.
The group, made up of Foundation staff members, volunteers and Community Business Patrons, left The Halliwell Jones Stadium and cycled 190 miles over two days, arriving at St James Park in time for a full weekend of Super League fixtures.
The Super Cyclists battled the rain, hail and wind along with the North Yorkshire hills, but all completed the challenge safely. A special mention to Foundation Director Neil Kelly who completed the challenge as a solo effort in just one day!
The Foundation would like to thank Central Self Drive for the use of their van for the support vehicle and the mini bus to transport the cyclists back to Warrington.  A special thanks also goes to The Unicorn Hotel in Ripon for their hospitality on day one.
If you would like to support the group’s efforts, you can sponsor them via the Just Giving Page www.justgiving.com/wolves-foundation.
