The retail property charity cycle challenge, King’s Cross Cycle to Mapic 2017, has opened for registration, hoping to build on last year's successful event.
Organised by business networking and fundraising charity Club Peloton, King's Cross Cycle to Mapic will set off from Girona on 11 November 2017 and arrive in Cannes in time for the start of international trade show Mapic on 14 November. Along the way the riders will take on 700 km of challenging cycling along the Mediterranean coastline, raising money for children's charity Coram.
'The support of King's Cross for Cycle to Mapic has helped to evolve the ride further as a vehicle for teamwork, industry networking and fundraising, and last year’s event saw the creation of numerous strong relationships both on and off the bike,' commented Nick Hanmer, CEO of Club Peloton. 'Four days of challenging cycling, working together as one group, builds a sense of camaraderie and support that forms strong bonds well before the cyclists arrive at Mapic .'
Last year's successful event raised £40,000 (€47,000). For the 2017 ride, King's Cross has so far been joined by British Land, Citygrove, Nash Bond and Wembley Park as team sponsors. Charity Coram has been helping vulnerable children overcome hardship and trauma for over 275 years.
