There is just one year to go before Transaid kicks off its Land’s End to John O’Groats (LEJOG) cycle challenge (2-13 June 2020), with riders from across the transport and logistics industry invited to reserve a place on the international development organisation’s most ambitious ride to date.
Nine participants have already signed up to complete the 972-mile journey, including Verity Cullum, Head of Marketing at MAN Truck and Bus UK.
She says: “Cycling the length of the country has always been a personal goal of mine. I have supported Transaid for many years, so when the opportunity came up, it seemed like 2020 was the year for me to tick this off my bucket list and raise some money for a great cause.”
Transaid is also offering the opportunity for individuals to sign-up to any number of the four three-day legs, or for companies or groups of friends to compete as a relay team.
The funds raised from this challenge will go towards Transaid’s life-saving work in sub-Saharan Africa, where it is focused on improving commercial driving standards and ensuring improved access to healthcare.
