Last week We at Fungi (Lee and I) had the pleasure of once again supporting Macmillan Cancer Support Jersey and organising their logistics for their biggest fundraiser of the year.
Lee and I safely transported 58 very precious road bikes all the way to the Pyrenees and back. This is much harder than it sounds, and Lee and I both use our different skill sets to make this happen. It was super organised and went like clockwork. but it needs said that Lee ( Fungi FD) is absolutely amazing at design and building. We didn't use a single permanent fixing in either of the supplied vans.
We also added so many little touches to the trip for Macmillan to add a real concierge service feeling for the riders.
I was lucky enough not only to drive one of the Vans to Biarritz and back from Collioure but also to ride the entire route as part of the squad. Over 630 kms and climbing 10,000 meters of elevation.
This was Macmillan challenge number 4 for me. I completed it with a smile on my face but it was very hard and very very cold. Massive congratulations to all of the riders and crew from us.
If ever you get the inkling to join us on one of these challenges , Just do it ! They are the most amazing trips, Mixed ability riders but everyone supporting each other and also the charity.
I wouldn’t have been able to provide the service that we did with out the help of some of our friends…
Massive thank yous and shout outs to
