View Full Version : Enduance ride
My company Autotrail are holding a 24 hour sonsered endurance ride for charity, The chosen charity is cancer uk, The ride wil take place around willingham woods on the 27th June at 12pm and finish on 28th June at 12pm. It would be grate if we could get some of the lads from Trailblazerz to do this and try to raise as much as we can for the charity. The ride will be 2 in each team and done as a relay. For more details contact me.
Put me down, I will let you know the other half of my team soon!
my other half of the team is Paul Bilbe!!
any chance of having a bigger team ;) :D
will have a word with the lad at work sorting it out. was on about 2 in a team because if you had more it will make it to long between rides, there for alot easyer lol. but will ask mate.
I just need about 4 hours between each lap

it is a weekend Rick, and if we could have say 4 on a team I too could be interested.
how long is the route ? ?
just put your name down, it will be a good laugh, and I'm sure there will be enough time between laps for a burger or 2 :D
right i have had a word with the lad doing it and he said would would b ok to to have more in a team as long as you all take a sponser from or donate a little to the charity. hoping for a 7 to 8 mile route just got to clear the route with wolly. prob take 40min to an hour at a guess.
sorry. what i meant was where does the route go??
not 100% sure yet, got to confirm it with wolly because there are certain public footpaths that we can not use. but when it is all confirmed you will all get a map and its going to b sign posted.

so.. a few ppl at work might be intrested also, i have been asked to ask
i) are solo entries permited? ie a 1 man team?
ii) how much of the sponsorhip money actually goes to charity?
iii) is there a camping/base camp area?
if you can let us know the full details as soon as you have them as time is running out. cheers.
i talked to burnsy on sunday and he tells me that Wally is going to open the FC office, where theres toilets and a basic kitchen area (prob for organisers¬ racers) and ....i might be wrong maybe shower, i reckon it will prob be race HQ, dunno about the rest,maybe intrested if they do 10 man team :D
Right I pretty much have a team :eek:
-Andy Lewis (me)
-Dean Doyle
-Dan Matthews
-Lewis Bilton(not confirmed yet)
If you can pm me any extra stuff. Should be a right laugh. Need to find a team tent now :p

lol.
the guy who asked about solo entry for him and possibly a mate or two is an IronMan athlete (hardcore triathlon) when i say ironman, i mean that literally... he is currently training for a triple iron man. im not sure on the swimming or cycling distance but the running equates to 3 full marathons :eek:
after a some thought and a chat with Burnsy, i reckon the club should be more involved with this event, its at our gig and its a really good cause etc
what do ya reckon?

Christopher Colley
Edward Tweed
Thomas Childerhouse
there is not going to b any lighting other than your bike lights rick and at the fc office. fish said he didnt think wolly would have a problem with putting a tent up if you really want. we didnt ask because was only going to have 2 in a team so not much time to sleep.

Couple more questions:
Is there an entry fee or anything or is that covered by the sponsorship stuff?
also, if a team want to take part but not seek sponsorship, whats the charge?
Cheers.

Right Click <HERE> (http://www.trailblazerz.net/images/TS/Sponsor.pdf) to download a sponsor form in .pdf format.
there is no entry fee and we ask is for the rides that dont want to seek sponsorship to make a donation to the charity.

any more info on course etc?
fish has got the map with the route on. Ment to be taking it to wally when he gets 5 mins to see if there is any way he can make it a bit longer for us. think there is going to be a small fee per rider because each rider has to be insured. it will only b 2 to 3 pounds so im told.
i saw Wally yesterday, and there is some scope to expand the course, i will be seeing him next week to finalise the route ;)
thats spot on fish thanks alot for doing that for us.
right im needing the teams names of the people that are doing the race please, because some people are starting to back out now its getting close. and if anyone is needing forms or anything can you let me no.
My lot are still in.
The Sturton dirt Crusaders.
-Andrew Lewis
-Will Vernon
-Dan Matthews
-Dean Doyle.
We're in for sure. Cant wait, should be a right laugh

from work i think there are 3 solo nutters, will try and confirm tomorrow.
im still in but no idea if i am in a team or doing it on my own :eek:
insurance is being delt with, BC eventually got back to me :rolleyes: today
should be registered for it by early next week, i may point out that for insurance perposes #cough# that this is a "ride" ;) for charity and not a "race" ;) awarding kudos for the winners is ok tho :D
hope the few that said they r going to do it still r and will c you on sat. its going to start at 12 so get there no later than 11:30 please.
owing to a few complications :( this event has been
POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE a new date will be set in the next few days, most probably in september
Ahh not good! Hope i will be able to make the september gig! Same track goin to be used though? Give the new sections time to run in sweeet i guess!
please don't confuse this with "KING OF THE HILL" which is still going ahead on JULY 5th :D
Haha, so much confusion, just read about the timing for KOH being a worry then clicked on this and said postponed so my head didnt function quick enough :P
noooooooooo! Thats a pity :(

Hopefully, the club can get a little involved and we can turn this into a quality event, with plenty of entrants and raise a ton of money for Cancer Research.
Let me know if theres anything i can do.
