MKRUFC is proud to present the return of the ROF (ring of fire) for 2022. We have been on ice since our 2019 excursion (France coast to coast). In 2022 we will be joining forces with our local charity Willen Hospice , so that all funds will be shared by MKRUFC and Willen. Some very challenging cycling.
The ROF22 cycle will be start in the Bordeaux suburb of Begles, and head south-west to Mimizan on the coast, via the back roads. Down the coast and inland to the rugby town of Dax, for our first overnight stop. Day two is Dax-Mont-de-Marsan and on to Condom, over the bumps of the Landes-Chalosse region. Day three is Condom-Aiguillon-Cahors. Day four is Cahors, back towards the rugby epicentre that is Monflanquin and on to Bergerac. Last day is the return to Bordeaux via Creon and the popular Voie Verte...and over the bridge to Begles.
Just shy of 500 miles on the map...so with the a few 'swing-swang' adjustments, we will top 500 miles. Challenging.
The MKRUFC is not a team of 'hard core' cyclists but rather a gathering of lapsed athletes, ex rugby players and friends of the club that happen to own a bicycle and care about 'giving' to our community. Please help us in our efforts.
Al donations to this site will go directly to the MKRUFC and Willen. All of the costs related to this tour are self funded or sponsored.
More info about Willen here : Willen Hospice - End of life palliative care (willen-hospice.org.uk)
We are asking all cyclists and support staff to try and give 1 days salary per month for the six months leading up to the ride. This will help us achieve our ambitious fund raising goal.
In turn we would like to cover 2 days of full costs for Willen...more on that later.
