Keyline cyclists get on their bikes for charity

CIVILS and drainage solutions specialist Keyline has announced it will be again host a charity cycle event in Scotland to raise cash for Prostate Cancer UK.

A group of cyclists will start a three-day, 300-mile bike ride on June 7. The team will set off from the Keyline Dumfries branch, where they will face a 96-mile cycle ending at the Adrossan Harbour. On Day Two, the cyclists will catch a ferry across to the Isle of Arran and then bike another 96 miles to Oban. The final day will involve a hilly 108-mile ride to the finish line – the Keyline branch in Inverness.

The team hopes to beat the £8,000 raised last year.

Frazer MacBean, regional operations manager for Scotland and the north – and the charity cycle organiser – said, “After such astonishing success at last year’s event, we have decided to host the charity cycle again this summer. We intend to smash last year’s generous donations that totalled a staggering £8,000. Everyone at Keyline is extremely grateful for the ongoing support this event has received and we welcome everyone to help raise more money for an amazing cause.”
