I’m Olly, and this Christmas I’m taking on the huge challenge of completing the Festive 500 for the first time. The classic challenge of cycling 500km between Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.
The only catch is that I’ll be doing all 500km in one ride…around Herne Hill Velodrome.
That’s right, instead of the normal 8 days to complete the challenge, I’ll have 28 hours to ride the small matter of 1112 laps of the track.
I’m doing it all in aid of two great charities, Friends of Herne Hill Velodrome and MSI Reproductive Choices.
FHHV do amazing work keeping the historic Herne Hill Velodrome up and running as the brilliant community hub that it is, all led by their fantastic volunteers.
MSI Reproductive Choices provide life-changing reproductive care and advocate for women worldwide, empowering them with the choices they need to determine their own futures.
This ride will be a huge challenge but definitely worth it to raise money for these two brilliant charities.
Please consider donating to these great causes, and bring on the challenge!
