Team Tower a week on and they are smashing it!
So it has been a week since Team Tower Power 24, Jordan W. , our director clive bates , and camera man Richard set off on their epic adventure to conquer the 3 towers!
The three towers https://www.towerpower2024.com/ encompass: The Leaning Tower of Pisa, The Eiffel Tower and the Blackpool tower all in aid of two amazing charities very close to Jordan's heart. The Army Cadets, and Jordan banks, a young lad who died in very tragic circumstances whilst playing football in Jordan's home town of Blackpool. The ECO sustainable challenge is being sponsored by headline sponsor https://www.davidmellorjewellers.co.uk/ and support sponsor https://www.rbindustrial.co.uk/
Day 3 of the challenge saw Jordan and Clive being joined for a few hours by the fabulous Cycle Coach James Hey . Chatting to Clive he said it certainly gave Jordan and team tower a much needed morale boost, following the long drive over, and the technical difficulties they encountered on the first few days.
James was also out in Italy for Dallaglio RugbyWorks #CycleSlam2024 on Saturday. I'm sure the energetic trio had much to discuss!
They managed to bank 100km that day which stood them in good stead for the following day. You can track their progress by clicking the link here https://www.towerpower2024.com/track-live/
One man's vision is making history..
However....don't be fooled by the scenic photo pics, oh no...this is an incredibly difficult challenge not only physically but mentally for the three men out there.
They have to find places to camp in very difficult conditions, use out of date technology for charging the electric vehicle ( kindly donated byR & B Industrial Ltd whilst navigating the best route for Jordan and the cumbersome bike that weighs in at 6 times the weight of a normal bike with all off Jordan's kit. They also have very limited access to Wifi to connect to their loved ones back home.
It is a real boost for Jordan and the team when they see the donations coming in, so If you can support this incredible fund raising challenge of a lifetime they would be incredibly grateful. Donation link below:
