MacRide 2007 is on Sunday 9 September 2007 - the website with all the details is at www.macride.org.uk and we are taking entries - just download and send your entry form.
Do please help us to raise even more this year for Macmillan Cancer
Support - all the money is spent within the Warwickshire & Coventry area - and don't forget that through the generosity of our sponsors, supporters and volunteers our costs are minimal (less than £200 in 2006) - that means that over 95% of the entry fees and 100% of sponsorship and donations go to Macmillan.
We are running the popular 25 and 50 miles routes again, but this year, by popular demand, we have added a third distance option for a metric century" - that's 100Km or about 63 miles. By offering this distance we are hoping to attract an even bigger field of riders, especially club cyclists and Audax riders - and anyone who likes a bigger challenge!
... and please note : with the increase in rider numbers (and
hopefully even more this year!) we have out-grown the start venue and
will be starting MacRide 2007 from the Stratford Park & Ride (by
arrangement with Warwickshire County Council & Johnson's Coaches, the
operator) - the cycling routes will still be on quiet roads, using the off-carriageway cycle-paths to and from the start.
Ride the MacRide - tell your friends, family and work-colleagues - and
help make the event even more successful.
Hot news : for 2007 we have a MacRide cycling jersey available in return for a donation of just £25 (that's a proper Coolmax jersey with back pockets etc, not a T-shirt) - details on the website at www.macride.org.uk
Looking forward to seeing you!

We will be there again Rob - a most excellent ride it is too tho' how my 11year old will cope with 50 miles rather than the 25 remains to be seen. Please could you book the superb weather again?
JB2 minute grovels can sometimes be a lot longer..tho' shorter on a lighter bike :-)

I had a great time doing this last year and would recommend it to anyone. Really well organised, lovely countryside, and the weather last year was fantastic. Unfortunately I'm doing a Triathlon in Warwick that day, so won't be there this year.0
