...cycle challenge
End to End
Wannabeamazin is running a two-week Easter fundraising bike ride from Lands End to John O’Groats in 2010. This amazing trip will take in 1,000 miles of the most beautiful UK countryside over 14 unforgettable days in what will be an amazing way to make a difference to the lives of children in Uganda.

The 'End to End' bike ride represents an iconic long distance cycling achievement from Lands End at the South Western tip of the UK to John O'Groats, at the opposite north eastern corner, across the gloriously diverse landscapes of the British Isles.
The UK has some of the best touring country in Europe. Within relatively short distances you can go from the harsh openness of the south-western moorland, the summits of the Pennine spine of the country, the glacial legacy of the Lake District and the wild emptiness of the Scottish Highlands.
A tough challenge, but a fantastic way to see the country and one of the most rewarding things you will ever do - while also helping the people in Uganda to improve their lives.

Complete the online application form and submit it now! It costs nothing to register and we will be in contact to provide further information and confirm your participation.
Please Note: To confirm your place you you will need to pay the cost of the trip and commit to raising a minimum sponsorship target of £500 - which is considerably less than other organisations request and easily achievable!
Trip Safety
We are running this programme independently so, to minimise costs to you, there will be no support vehicle accompanying the tour. Riders take part at their own risk, however, the safety of all riders will be paramount and anyone particpating will be required to wear full safety gear (helmet, high-vis bibs, etc).
Can I really do it?
Yes, as long as you have a bike and are prepared to do a sensible amount of training before you leave!
How long will it take?
The whole trip will take around 14 days (this includes 2 days travel to get yourself to the start and back again from the finish.)
When will it be?
The trip will be run from 2nd April - 16th April 2010 (this includes 2 bank holidays to minimise the time you need to take off work!).
How much will it cost?
The trip will cost approximately £500 for the two weeks depending on accomodation - you will only pay what it costs (we do not look to make any profit - we simply ask you to raise a minimum sponsership target in addition to the cost).
What is included in this price?
Trip planning, organisation and accommodation. Breakfast will generally be included, although this will vary according to the accomodation. Accommodation will mostly be in B&B’s and hostals - full accomodation details will be provided once riders are confirmed.
What is not included in this price?
Participants will have to cover the costs for their journey to/from the start/finish, all other meals and drinks, as well as personal travel insurance. Riders will also be required to carry all their equipment and luggage with them along the way!
