The 23 cyclists are setting off on the 'Pedal for Pounds' trip on Wednesday 5th August with their first stop being Lincoln on Wednesday night. We thought we would give you a brief introduction of the cyclists because we will be updating you on how they are getting on during their trip so over the next week keep your eyes on the website for the mini blogs.

Please feel free to come down to the stadium on Wednesday to help give the team a good send off; their estimated departure time is 10am.

We hope to see you there!
