Welcome to shoerecycling.co.uk
During September 2010 the Shoe repair industry will once again be getting on its bikes with an all new cycling challenge & family fun day with a plan to raise £25,000 for Breast Cancer awareness
This latest event will involve the "Cross" cycle challenge which will be roughly 600 miles completed in 30 hours from the 10th - 12th September 2010 followed by a family fun day at Rutland Water.
In its early stages of planning be sure to visit regularly to get the latest updates as the event unfolds.
Just in case you were thinking that you wouldn’t be able to participate in the Cycle Challenge because you don’t have a cycle, then fear not, Rutland Water has excellent cycle hire facilities. Don’t forget that you can still walk for sponsorship you don’t have to cycle!
Follow the link below for prices and information.
