MaD LEJOG 2022

We are a bunch of enthusiastic cyclists that are trying to raise some money for some charities that are close to our hearts. Our fundraising event is to attempt a Lands End to John O'Groats cycle ride in just 10 days. We ride under an appropriate banner of MaD which in truth is based on where some of us live in Bristol - Mangotsfield & Downend.

The Lands End to John O'Groats (LEJOG) ride has long been a bucket list item for a number of us and somehow in early 2020 we agreed on a date and set things in motion. The original date was May 2021 however, due to the pandemic we re-scheduled to May 2022. We will ride as a team with a common fundraising target of £10,000 and have selected five charities each receiving an equal share.

The ride will be tough and will take see us cycle around 1000 miles covering roughly 100 miles per day over the 10 day period - 20th to 29th May 2022.
During the ride we will be supported by a single vehicle which will carry spares, food, drink and blister plasters!

You will know that COVID-19 has had a real impact on the big fund raising events such as fun runs and marathons with most being cancelled. We would be delighted if you could sponsor us and help us achieve our team target - every penny makes a difference!

Thank you, Team MaD!
