A C4C rider burnt over 6,000 calories every day last year.

Riding on average for almost six hours everyday we certainly needed as many calories as we could get!

Benefi ts include:1.) Logo and write up on Cogs 4 Cancer “Energy Partner page” within C4C website 2.) Logo and write up on Cogs 4 Cancer social media channels (April - November 2014)3.) Logo and write up on Cogs 4 Cancer blog (April - October 2014)

Cost - €0 - simply the donation of all the energy bars, gels and powders the 16 C4C riders will need over the course of the 6 days riding.

“It is fair to say that most of us have been touched by cancer, either personally or to someone we love. Last years ride had moments when I had to dig pretty deep but it was nothing in comparison to all those people fi ghting this terrible disease. Please help us in our attempts to help them. Thank you” John Clark

Drinks Bottle Partner - 1 left

During last years C4C ride an average rider got through over 5 litres of fl uid every day, that’s almost 7 bottles of energy drink.

In fact you are unlikely to ever see a C4C rider without a drink in his hand, granted it’s usually only John Clark who manages to combine Rose with re-hydration but our drinks bottles still got plenty of use.

12 Call Ben +33 6 13 07 58 77 or email [email protected]

Just about every rider carried two bottles on their bike all the time last year which meant that the bottles were always in view when Steve’s camera was fl ashing!
