Perhaps the most challenging yet, last week’s event will certainly be remembered as the hottest! Nearly 40 riders came out last Thursday to participate in JCA’s special charity cycling event – 90km of beautiful (and steep!) climbs in the heart of the Chilterns to raise funds for three very noteworthy charities – Mind UK, Happy Days Children’s Charity and Steph’s Wishes.
We were also joined by a special guest, Ned Boulting, an award-winning sports journalist, television presenter and author. Ned has been an integral part of ITV’s Tour de France coverage since 2003, forging a position within the cycling world as a respected reporter, presenter and writer. Along the way Ned’s portfolio of work has expanded, annual credit includes coverage of the Tour of Britain and Vuelta a Espana.
Ned not only participated in our charity cycling event, riding alongside other guests, but also joined us for a short Q&A afterwards during which our guests were able to ask him questions and hear anecdotes from Ned’s sport broadcasting adventures.
A big thank you to all our guests who, despite the weather, braved the heat and hills of the Chilterns, as as well as other supporters.
