PEAK 100
The Spring Classic Sportive for Charity!
Sun 15th April 2012

Back for its second year PEAK 100 returns for what promises to be another spring classic!
Many of you will have taken part in The Macc Monster in October to end your cycling season so what better way to get back in the saddle and raise vital funds for children’s cancer research while experiencing a spectacular route spread across Cheshire, Derbyshire and Staffordshire!

It's 'only' 100kms, or more accurately 105kms, but it's all quality, with very little filler.
As ever, there is full route signage on bright orange correx, a well stocked feedstation, SAG wagon support and of course – the BBQ at the end!

Making use of mainly backroads, with only very brief main road transitions, the PEAK 100 promises to be a spring classic.
Check out the review of last year’s event!

The event features:
• Event start facilities inc toilets, changing and free car parking
• Start pack inc. rider number, energy products and sponsor forms
• Full route signposting
• Sag wagon support
• Event photographer
• Well stocked main Feedstation
• Publication of rider times
• Finish facilities inc toilets and changing
• Finish BBQ

Registation fee is £25.
Or alternatively you can e-mail chris [at] kidscan.org.uk with your details, and post your fee £25 by cash or cheque.
This is charity cycle sportive, so if you would like to raise additional funds with sponsorship we would be more than happy to supply you with the necessary materials.

If you would like more information on KidsCan the link is here, but getting you all interested in the cycle is more important right now!

Looking forward to hearing from you!

IMPORTANT: NEW START AND FINISH POINT FOR PEAK 100 THIS SUNDAY.

Dear All,

Due to unforeseen circumstances, at very short notice we have been informed we are unable to use our normal start and finish point for PEAK 100 (Big Storage Fence Avenue, Macclesfield).

The ride will instead be starting from SOUTH PARK PAVILION.

South Park, Macclesfield
Park Vale Road, Park Lane, Macclesfield, SK11 8AD

This is the map - http://www.cheshireeast.gov.uk/leisure,_culture_and_tourism/parks_and_op...
We have also updated the route notes and GPX for the ride. I have attached the route notes to this e-mail.
This is the link for Map My Ride

The route will still be signed with bright orange correx signs so you can’t miss them!
Any questions, please contact us asap.
We look forward to seeing you on what will be yet another fantastic cycle which will hopefully raise thousands of pounds for childhood cancer research.

Many thanks,

The KidsCan Team

Hi Everyone!

We're pushing 100 riders now with over a month left to go!
Can we get to 200 riders? Fingers crossed!

Mini-Crisis Averted!

The start and end point will be the same as last year's PEAK 100 and Macc Monster.
For any of you who have signed up, the information you'll have downloaded for your bike satnav's will be correct.
For those of you coming by car there is parking around Big Storage, Macclesfield on Fence Avenue.

Hope to see you there!

February has only just begun and we have over 40 riders taking part so far!
There’s plenty of time left to sign up and we’re hoping to get over 200!
This is the riders list so far.

In other news, the start and finish point is being relocated.
This will slightly affect the route, but not by much.
The move will benefit riders who are travelling to the start by car and hopefully be easier to find!

More information coming soon!

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask!
