My name is Adam and I am the marketing coordinator at Rutland Cycling.

I would just like to let you know about a couple of exciting things going on at Rutland Cycling that may be of interest to yourself, or club members.

Firstly, I’d like to let you know our Giant store on the South Shore of Rutland Water (Normanton) will be having a number of the ‘Endura Racing team’ in store on Tuesday 29th May @2pm. This will be an opportunity to meet the team, if yourself or any of the Fenland Clarion CC members are interested.

A limited number of Endura Racing Musettes will be given away on the day as well as a number of in-store Endura offers.

Secondly, I’d like to bring to your attention the New Permanent timed challenge around Rutland called the ‘Giant 365’ Sportive.

This sportive is very unique and as the name suggests, you can ride this sportive 365 days a year. There’s 2 routes available on the 365 – a 96 mile loop and a shorter 62 mile route.

Have a read of this write-up which will go into more depth about the Sportive if you’re interested - http://road.cc/content/news/54679-giant-365-sportive-new-permanent-timed-challenge-around-rutland.

I imagine that this sportive would be great for the Fenland Clarion CC to do if you were interested.

Feel free to give me a call if you’d like to discuss any of the above.

Best Regards,

Adam Hirst
