Blue Spares complete charity bike ride

Blue Spares, one of the UK’s leading suppliers of crusher, screener and shredder spare parts, have recently completed a gruelling charity cycle ride for Cancer Research UK.

The team which consisted of managing director Sean Warburton and sales manager Chris Thomas took to the saddle over the weekend of 3-4 August to complete the mammoth 280 mile ride which took them from the Blue Spares head office in Warrington to the Blue London office in Guildford via both Blue Central and Blue Southern offices. Both members of the team completed the challenging ride and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.  

To date the team's effort has raised over £5,000 for Cancer Research. Both riders would like to thank everyone who supported the event, in particular the Blue Group, Powerscreen, Kiverco, Doppstadt and Harpscreen for their sponsorship of the team shirts. Also a huge thanks needs to go to the support team who helped the guys throughout by keeping their energy levels high and offering encouragement along the way.

Commenting on the success of the charity cycle ride, Sean Warburton said: 'The Blue Spares team has long been considering how it could give something back to the community and with a recycling background wanted to do something that tied in with our green ethos. The idea to cycle to our other Blue offices was born out of our desire to showcase the UK coverage that Blue Spares and the Blue Group have in the recycling and quarrying sectors. I would personally like to thank all of our shirt sponsors and everybody that supported us on the weekend and has generously contributed to our chosen charity Cancer Research.'
