Tom's Trust is an important charity in Cambridge and has a longstanding connection with cycling in Cambridge via the Primo Cycles Gran Fondo. Jeremy Ashworth, (who along with Eduardo Bort founded the Auckland Road Cycling Club, which now has over 40 members) has direct experience of the invaluable work that Tom's Trust does, as his youngest son Douglas suffered from a brain tumour in 2011 and they continue to help him through the consequences of his treatment.

On 19th June a bunch of fit, and not so fit, old and young will be meeting up in La Seu d'Urgell on the Spanish/Andorra border for our epic trip to San Sebastian.

There will be 17 of taking part,  and hopefully we all arrive in one piece.

As you can see below, it will be a tough ride for even experienced riders, especially day 3. Please help us to raise as much money as we can for such a valuable cause
