Default One of our Racers Has Died

One of our racers Died last week and was buried today - Chris Rand.
Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.
During the short time we knew Chris he always tried to have a smile on his face even when in great pain - R.I.P

We definately need to hold some sort of event and fund raiser in memory of Chris. A few of us thought an endurance race on a saturday would be ideal. Not sure how do-able this is but we shall give it a shot. Get sponsored and maybe donate to McMillan or another charity if Chris had nominated one?

RIP and thoughts to his family and friends.

The family have posted the following on the RVRCCC Facebook page. We have a Just Giving page set up http://www.justgiving.com/chris-Rand which donates to Cancer Research UK in Chris' memory (he was only diagnosed out of the blue in June 2013) we hope this will help. Thank you x

Nicola Rand is fundraising on JustGiving for Cancer Research UK
www.justgiving.com
Help Nicola raise money for this great

Also the Facebook page has a discussion going about how the club will help to raise funds
