About AEO to NEC 2020

This fundraising ride is being held in support of GT15, an event created by former footballer and cancer survivor, Geoff Thomas.

On 26th June 2020 Geoff will lead a team of 21 amateur cyclists to begin one of sport's toughest challenges, the Tour de France, one day ahead of the professional peloton. The NEC's Ian Taylor is part of the GT15 team and together they are aiming to raise an impressive £1 million for Cure Leukaemia! 

The AEO to NEC ride will help to raise funds towards their £1 million total. By donating and representing your company on this ride, you will not only be raising money that makes a real difference to people's lives, but also spending a fun day on the bike with industry peers and friends.
