Story

THE PINARELLO BIKERS ARE GOING ON TOUR!

The Pinarello Bikers - Bobby, Nikki, Naresh and Simon have set themselves a real mountain to climb in aid of a cause close to all of their hearts, Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, who currently treat a staggering 275,000 children a year. On 9th May, they will be taking on the extreme challenge of cycling 600km across France in just 6 days, in hope that their efforts will help to raise the much needed funds that could really make the difference and help to save the lives of children with brain tumours.

It’s safe to say that they're not exactly the fittest bunch or used to 5 am wake-up calls and healthy eating, so the training for their Coastal Tour has come as quite a shock to the system! Starting in Perpignan and ending in Antibes, it’s going to be a long, tough week but will be totally worth it if they can help to raise awareness of the amazing work the team at Alder Hey do and improve the vital facilities and services for the children as they go along.

They are really going to give it their all (even if they do need a holiday by the end of it!) and so would greatly appreciate if could dig deep for this incredible cause. Alder Hey Children’s Hospital are lifesavers and truly incredible at what they do. Wouldn’t it be great if you could lend a helping hand and help them to save even more children's lives?

Wish them luck! Many thanks in advance.
