BaxterStorey Team Ride for Charity

18th June 2008, 12:35pm

Around 50 people from across BaxterStorey, gave up their normal Sunday lie ins and instead jumped on their bikes, each cycling 54 miles from London to Brighton, all peddling their way to raising a massive £50,000 for charity.

Alongside 27,000 others, the team from BaxterStorey cycled the route that began in Clapham Common London and travelled to Brighton.

Finishing in times of between 2 hours 55 minutes and 5 hours, the team which included the company's Deputy Chief Executive, William Baxter and Managing Directors Mike Smith and Noel Mahony all celebrated their achievement on the beachfront in Brighton with a well earned rest and barbeque prepared by BaxterStorey staff.

This is the third year that BaxterStorey has entered a team into the UK's most famous bike ride.

Explaining why his company is such a regular supporter of the event and British Heart Foundation (BHF), William Baxter, Deputy Chief Executive said: "BHF do a magnificent job in researching, educating and supporting people in the UK about heart disease and we're keen to play our role in assisting their efforts. The bike ride is a great way to help our team keep healthy and enjoy fundraising, but most of all it's great fun."
