Pedalite International, a provider of 360 degree visibility, battery-free pedal lights for bikes is offering five lucky cyclists an one-off chance to cycle with former World Champion Cyclist and four times European track champion, Tony Doyle, MBE, in one of the British Heart Foundation's (BHF) largest bike events - the London to Southend charity bike ride on 20th July 2008.
Tony is recognised as one of the UK's most successful cyclists. He was twice World Professional Pursuit Champion, four times World Silver medallist, four times European Track Champion and the UK's most successful 6 day rider ever. He has won 24 six-day races in his amazing career and in 1989 was awarded an M.B.E. for his services to cycling. Since retiring from a professional racing career, he has become a well respected figure on an international level often appearing on TV and Radio.
He is also an ardent safety cycling safety campaigner and an ambassador for Pedalite, a company specialising in cycling safety products, including its award-winning 360-degree visibility, battery-free pedal lights for bikes.
The competition winners will form a team of six Pedalite riders, led by Tony and together they will raise sponsorship funding for the BHF. They will get the chance to meet Tony before the event and receive vital tips about training and warming up for the 59 mile ride a few weeks before. They will also receive a Pedalite cycling shirt to wear on the day and a free set of Pedalite pedals and toe clips to take home with them.
To enter the competition, entrants need to state in no more than 250 words why they want to cycle with the former World Champion and submit their entry by email to Caroline.beswick@trinitypr.co.uk by 6th June 2008. The five best entries will win and winners will be contacted by 13th June 2008. For competition terms and conditions, go here: http://www.pedalite.com/competition.aspx
Simon Theobald, Managing Director of Pedalite says, "We are delighted that Tony will lead a team from Pedalite in one of the UK's biggest charity cycling events. It is a great opportunity for five lucky winners to learn from a former world champion professional cyclist how he would approach the training and run up to such an event and pick some invaluable tips and advice for the future. Not only is this is a fantastic, one-off opportunity, it is a chance to raise money for a wonderful charity."
