Euroglaze Charity Bike Ride for Prostate Cancer

7^th October 2012

We announced in August that our Managing Director, Martin Nettleton was taking part in a sponsored bike ride to raise funds for the Prostate Cancer Charity and here is the evidence that he made it!

Martin, riding his tandem with his friend Andrew Oates as pilot, completed the 2 day ride from Timperley, Manchester to Ross-on-Wye on 15th and 16th September. They were lucky with the weather, a bit windy but no rain and clocked up a total of 141.2 miles riding through the countryside of Cheshire, Shropshire and Herefordshire without a puncture!

Along with the group of 30 other cyclists the completed ride has so far raised over £10,000 for the Prostate Cancer Charity. Martin would like to say a massive thank you to customers and suppliers who supported him so generously in his efforts.

If you would still like to donate to this worthwhile charity now that Martin has completed the ride it is easy to make a pledge via the website that has been set up by the group organizer to enable online sponsorship. The link is:

It is encouraging to know that even in these tough times people are still prepared to put their hands in their pockets and do their bit to help others.

Thank you once again!
