Further to our article concerning the “Cycle to Recycle” event between Friday 5th September and Tuesday 9th September we would rather belatedly like to report that our cyclists Will and Keith duly completed their section from Rockingham to Rushden on Monday 8th September in double-quick time.

Standard have raised just under £1000.00 for this challenge; with Will (left) and Keith managing to raise a staggering £700.00 between them.  This money has been donated towards the “Cycle to Recycle” fund which will be going to Children in Need.  As of 21st October 2008 the total raised by all the contributors stands at £11498.03.  The actual Children in Need event takes place on Friday 14th November.

Details of the event can be found at www.shoerecycling.co.uk along with sponsorship opportunities, messages, and photographs of participants in various states of physical distress!

Seen pictured at the end of the challenge are our two intrepid cyclists, along with Keith Malyon, our Sales Director, who courageously stepped in to be photographed with the lads after completing this section from the comfort of his motorbike seat.
