Cycling brothers receive
sponsorship
CYCLING brothers Joe and Dan Cosgrove
were delighted to receive sponsorship from MeCycle Café and Bike Workshop,
following nomination by the Southport Cycling Club.
The boys, ages 11 and 9 respectively, started cycling just a few years ago and
have already competed in rides as far afield as Holland and the Isle of Man. The
brothers, from Formby, were excited to be selected.
Colin Baldwin, President of the Southport Cycling Club, said:- "We chose
them because they are getting better and better and although they've only been
riding for a couple of years they have developed beyond measure. They have won
all sorts of competitions in the North West in their age groups. If they stick
at this, they could go far."
Joe said:- "I 1st started cycling with my mum for fun and it's grown
from there."
Autism Ventures, who runs Mecycle café in Ainsdale, support young adults with
autism in work placements and employment. They have sponsored young people in
the Southport Cycling Club for the last 2 years. Cyclists at the café can buy
refurbished bikes, cycle accessories and enjoy homemade cake and barista coffee.
Along with a goody bag and certificate, both boys received a ₤150 voucher to
spend in store. |
