Team CIE tackle 3 charity challenges for Maggie's Cancer Support

29th January 2020

Team CIE are ready to tackle 3 big challenges this year in support of our chosen charity - Maggie's Cancer Support Centres.

Maggie's Cancer Support CentreIn memory of our wonderful friend and colleague - Jon Doar - who sadly lost his battle with cancer last year; the CIE Team are taking on the world this year (or at least 3 parts of it!) to raise money for our supported charity 'Maggie's Centres'.

This year the CIE Team will be taking on our 'Triple Challenge' of endurance cycling and climbing. Beginning in February with the Derby Huub Track Attaque - a 24hour non-stop velodrome cycle challenge and rounding things off with taking on the world's tallest freestanding mountain - the mount kilimanjaro - as we ditch the bikes and pull on our climbing boots! 


Derby Huub Track Attaque | 8-9th February 2020

24 Hour velodrome challenge

The challenge takes place at Derby Arena - the Midlands’ hub for track cycling in February. The 250 metre track has been ridden by some of the worlds top cyclists and is the home of independent British UCI track team, Huub Wattbike. This velodrome challenge event is all about endurance as team CIE will be relaying laps around the track for 24 hours!
