George will be participating in Le Cure 2025 and will attempt to cycle 326 kilometers and climb 9,955 vertical metres.

Since starting Le Cure, George has cycled the equivalent of the height of Mount Everest 1.18 times, and cycled around the m25 2.05 times! That's 10,413 vertical metres and 386 kilometres.

Cycling Experience:

I am now 77 years old, and I got interested in cycling about 12 years ago. Having been fit most of my life, competing in marathons, I decided to try my hand at triathlons. Running was no problem, but swimming and cycling were new sports that I had to learn.
I was accepted into the GB Team and 3 World Championships for Age Groups, including London 2013. Cycling became my favourite sport, and I competed in two charity rides for Lawrence Dallaglio's RugbyWorks SLAM.

Biggest Fear:

My biggest fear are the mountains but ironically, they are my greatest strength !

Reason For Doing This:

When the opportunity came up to do a ride for the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, being such a worthwhile cause I decided to join the group.
