Great Manchester Cycle announces £10 offer to entrants with the Daily Mirror
Created On: 29 March 2012
The organisers of the Daily Mirror Great Manchester Cycle, the
new urban mass participation bike ride, are pleased to announce a
new pricing offer to celebrate their partnership with the Daily
Mirror.
Entrants in each of the 13 mile, 26 mile and 52 mile categories
will be able to enter for just £10, instead of the usual £28. Kids
entries are just £5, while children between 3-7 can ride for
free.
The £10 fee celebrates 10 years of the Bupa Great Manchester
Run, also organised by Nova International; the Daily Mirror Great
Manchester Cycle is the latest in the series of "Great" city
challenges, from the UK's leading mass participation sporting
events company.
The multi-distance Great Manchester Cycle event on 4th June 2012
will be the first mass participation urban bike ride taking place
on completely closed roads in an otherwise bustling city centre,
including a stretch of Manchester's busiest motorway - the iconic
Mancunian way.
The event has three distance options, setting off in waves from
08:00 - giving you the option to Get Out and Pedal over 13 miles,
Rule the Roads over 26 miles or Test Yourself over 52
miles.
Starting and finishing at Eastlands, the home of Manchester City
FC, the course takes in the districts of Manchester, Trafford and
Salford, allowing cyclists the chance to see their city from a new
perspective as they ride along roads normally strictly off limits
to cyclists
Olympic Gold Medallist, Rebecca Romero said: "The Great
Manchester Cycle is going to be a fantastic day out and a very
different experience to anything riders will have experienced
before."
She continued: "Riding on closed roads through the heart of
Manchester for just £10 will be an incredible thing to do and
hopefully families and keen cyclists alike will turn out for a day
they won't forget."
As always with a "Great" event, you can have an exciting and
safe time, whatever your ability, in the knowledge there is a full
support service on course, entertainment and chip timing to give
you a result for your efforts.
