Big Foot Systems has taken part in a charity bike ride from Eastbourne Pier to Paris and back in one weekend.
The 255-mile bike ride raised more than £4,000, including sponsorship from Big Foot’s Belgium distributor Linum, for Macmillan, Parkinson’s UK and Sussex Air Ambulance.
In total 12 people took part, including Big Foot’s technical marketing manager, Joe Rose, and Miles Hardy, the firm’s commercial support coordinator. Along the way they battled through torrential downpours, a couple of pile-ups, Parisian traffic chaos and more than their fair share of punctures, but eventually they made it back to Eastbourne in one piece.
Joe Rose said: 'The bike ride was fantastic and it’s always nice to combine a fun event with raising some money for some really great charities. We’d also like to thank our Belgium distributor Linum Europe for their generous support of the event.'
