SIA Cycle-A-Thon:
20th August – 12th November 2011

Your Bike, Your Location, Your Miles, 12 Weeks – Calling All Cyclists, Hand Cyclists and FES Cyclists

The SIA have launched a new and exciting Cycle-A-Thon event. You have 12 weeks to complete the Cycle-A-Thon and have a choice of cycling 29, 54, 140, 213 or 874 miles (based on the distances of famous events e.g. 140 miles the equivalent mileage to cycling the UK Coast to Coast). The great thing about the Cycle-A-Thon is you can complete your chosen mileage on your own push bike outside, as part of your gym routine on an exercise bike as part of your spinning class, or if you are spinal cord injured on a hand cycle or FES cycle.

You can choose to take part as an individual or as part of a corporate, family or friends team or club. Imagine being able to tell your people you have cycled the same distance as London to Paris, 213 miles, for example. They are bound to be impressed and will want to sponsor you.
