By hosting a coffee and cake morning at CamperKing HQ for 40 fellow cyclists from the Banbury Star Cycle Club, Rich managed to gather in a further £300 to help him close in on the £3,700 target he'd set for his Trans Alp Cycle Challenge, a gruelling 519km ride in the French Alps. Rich is currently in Europe preparing to take part in the challenge, which will see him ascend almost 1.5 times the height of Mount Everest over the course of the ride. Over the course of Saturday 3 September, he and his wife Ruth and daughter Amber helped serve dozens of teas, coffees and slices of cake to the hungry riders, who were each asked to donate at least £5 to Rich's cause. To ensure he's ready for the challenge, Vodafone employee Rich has been training for months to get in shape, at the same time as raising funds for Vodafone's Your Planet Foundation. This supports two charities, The Tusk Trust and The Ocean Cleanup. Rich said: "The epic challenge is to cycle from Grenoble France and traverse the Western Alps south across, France, culminating on the Cote d’Azur in Nice with a distance of 519km covering some of the most iconic climbs from the Tour De France including the famous Alp D'Huez, with a total accent of 12,354 metres." CamperKing has supported Rich from the start of his challenge, offering him a weekend's campervan hire as a raffle prize earlier this year.
