The Tour of Britain and The Prostate Cancer Charity Reveal Three New Tour Rides For 2010
Following a successful entry into the world of sportives last year, The Prostate Cancer Charity, in partnership with The Tour of Britain, is pleased to announce they will stage a further three events in 2010.
The Prostate Cancer Charity's Tour Rides, which will all take place in September,offer the unique opportunity for cyclists to measure themselves against the pros. Our riders will be treated to a fantastic experience, all in aid of a great cause. A challenging route, outstanding feed stations and excellent support are guaranteed.
· In a brand new event for 2010, cyclists will be able to tackle a tough route which traverses the scenic South West, travelling 150km from Minehead to the South Devon coast or covering part of the route over a distance of 70km, on Sunday 5 September.
· Stoke-on-Trent, which saw 1,300 riders participate in the inaugural Tour Ride last year including British Road Race Champion Kristian House, will again play host to cyclists, offering a grueling 145km route around Staffordshire, which starts and finishes in Stoke-on-Trent in the City’s centenary year, as well as a 70km challenge event, on Sunday 26 September.
· There will also be an event on the London stage of the event, which will take cyclists on a route past some of the most iconic landmarks in the capital, on Saturday 18 September, prior to the final stage of The Tour of Britain.
The Prostate Cancer Charity Tour Rides are part of the Charity’s commitment to get people on their bikes to raise awareness of the most common cancer in men, under its ‘Unite ByCycling’ initiative.
