24-hour cycling challenge to raise funds for foodbank

Donations aim to help feed the Island's most vulnerable

One man will be riding a bike indoors for 24 hours this weekend to raise money for the Isle of Man Foodbank.

 

Gianni Epifani, the Island's Senior Sports Development Officer, will be carrying out the challenge on a turbo trainer to raise money for local charity the Isle of Man Foodbank.

 

He'll be using virtual cycling platform Zwift, allowing other cyclists to join him digitally during the ride.

 

The challenge gets underway tomorrow at 10.30am, with live Facebook updates set to take place every 4 hours.

You can donate direct to the Isle of Man Foodbank via online banking or donate cash or food by calling the organisation on 07624 311550.
