On the weekend of 23rd and 24th September 2017, over 30 cyclists from Timperley Boneshakers cycled to Morecombe and back. This was organised by Ian Elliot to raise funds in memory of Chloe Waddell, who died suddenly of an undiagnosed heart defect in February 2013 at the age of 16.

Chloe’s mum, Fiona, and sister Holly, both cycled whilst dad, David, supported the cyclists as a driver.

Everyone set off early on Saturday morning from Timperley and chose to cycle either 85, 100 or 120 miles to Morecombe. The weather was kind to us and we had a great day cycling. We stayed over in Morecombe before setting off for the shorter 70 mile return ride to Manchester.

A fantastic amount was raised over the weekend totalling £12,689.00. There was a cheque presentation at our Christmas night out.

All of the monies raised will go to Heart Screenings in the local area.

Thanks to everyone who made this weekend such a success.
