10 City Challenge 2010

Please help us to raise to raise as much as we can for a fantastic charity.

On Monday 14th June 2010, to mark Strategic Team Group’s 10th anniversary year, we are doing something a bit special for our current chosen charity, The Prince of Wales Hospice in Pontefract. Our challenge is to find teams of four cyclists to join us in a charity cycle from the new Cyclepoint at Leeds City Station to Munich in Germany.

Pedalling through some of the most scenic cycle routes in Europe, passing through ten cities in the UK, Belgium, Luxembourg and Germany, each team will rack up a total of approximately 600 miles. The sense of achievement and camaraderie will be one to cherish forever – an unforgettable journey!

But we need your help!

We are looking for teams of enthusiastic riders to join us in our challenge to raise as much as we can for this fantastic charity.

Strategic Team Group is organising this event and will take care of all route planning, travel arrangements as far as Munich (organise own return), accommodation, ferries, breakfast and evening meal, general snacks, event support (vehicles and spare parts) and security for bikes. We will return the bikes to the UK if required.
