JMCL to Support Tour of Cambridgeshire Posted at: May 9, 2019 Posted in: All Sometimes opportunities align to combine both business and pleasure. I’m delighted to have the opportunity for JMCL to support the Tour of Cambridge (ToC). We consider it as a great fit with our Enlightened Procurement approach to serving our clients, improving their profits in a way that’s long-term sustainable and right for the whole business. JMCL has agreed a multi-year sponsorship and ToC 2019 is on 1st and 2nd of June and is based out of the East of England Arena, just off the A1 near Peterborough. What is the Tour of Cambridgeshire (ToC)? The ToC cycling festival comprises family events, a closed road Individual Time Trial (ITT), Team Time Trial (TTT) and Gran Fondo (GF). These events are for amateurs not professional cyclists, between the ages of 18 and 70+yrs. The festival is also hosting an inaugural non-competitive 100 mile cyclo sportive , the ToC 100, on fully closed roads with over 5000 riders already entered www.tourofcambridgeshire.com . A Gran Fondo is a type of long-distance road cycling ride originating in Italy in 1970, and roughly translates into English as “Big Ride”. The UCI Gran Fondo at ToC is a UCI qualifying event for the UCI Gran Fondo World Championships, which gives amateur riders the chance to qualify and represent their country. The event is held on fully closed roads and is a mass participation event, with a mass start. The event also offers the chance for families to ride. The Family Fondo is perfect for all abilities; it uses a fully closed circuit, which consists of 2-miles of all sorts of terrains. Get Involved The JMCL sponsorship gives us access to a number of entries into the events at ToC and memberships to the VIP facilities at the festival called Club Kermesse.
