Cyclists enjoy Kent countryside for East Kent Hospitals Charity

Hundreds of riders, including many staff from East Kent Hospitals, joined the Great Kent Sponsored Bike Ride for a fun day out in the Garden of England covering 25, 50 or 100 mile routes. More of a bike ride than a race, participants started in North Park, Ashford, before heading out to enjoy the views and road in Tenterden and the flat but windy road towards New Romney. Those brave enough to take on the 100 mile route took in a big loop through Lyminge and Canterbury.
 
Fundraising Manager for the charity, Rupert Williamson, said ‘We are so grateful for everyone involved in the Great Kent Bike Ride – from sponsors, volunteers and of course the riders. Don’t forget to sponsor your friends and family who have been involved!’
