Cogs 4 Cancer to celebrate 850km cycle with Royal Hotel Party

Report this content

The Cogs 4 Cancer riders would like to invite superyacht professionals and members of the public to join them for a celebratory party & dance therapy event to mark the end of their six-day charity cycle ride.  After cycling 850km from Ancona Italy, the sixteen riders and their support team will be celebrating their accomplishments at the Royal Hotel Antibes on Saturday 11th October.

Dance therapy is offered to cancer patients in the USA as a complementary method of reducing stress and muscle tension - which is exactly what the Cogs 4 Cancer riders and support team will need after six solid days on the road!

The evening is set to include the last ever performance from legendary French Riviera locals Blah Blah, as well as sets from acclaimed Ibiza DJ Sean Hughes.

Lee Mutch, Cogs 4 Cancer rider and superyacht industry leader, spoke to Yachting Pages and said, “There’s no better way to celebrate the end of our cycle than putting on my dancing shoes and celebrating our hard work and your generosity towards such a worthy cause.”

Entrance is €15 per person (children’s entrance is free), places are limited so entry is strictly on a first come first served basis.

Tuk Tuk Azur, the Cote d’Azur’s first and only electric tuk tuk company, is providing a free shuttle service from 4.00pm to 8.00pm from Hotel de la Pinede in Juan les Pins and the Antibes Capitainerie.

Interested parties should contact Ben Young on ben@sunseekersym.com.

Notes to Editors:

What is Cogs 4 Cancer?
