Pedalling 360 Miles for Lymm Rugby Club

Pedalling for Lymm: Paul Foulkes’ Epic Ride to Support His Rugby Family

At 75, some might slow down. Others, like Paul Foulkes of Lymm, find new adventures – and ways to inspire others.

This September, Paul is embarking on an extraordinary journey: cycling 360 miles from Lymm to Redruth.

His reason? Not simply for the challenge, but to raise £10,000 for Lymm Rugby Club, the heart of sporting life in his community.

A Challenge That Transcends Age

Paul’s ride is more than a test of endurance; it’s a celebration of lifelong commitment, athletic spirit, and the power of community.

His determination is a beacon – showing that age is no barrier to making a difference.

As he puts pedal to pavement, Paul reminds all of us that passion and purpose know no bounds.

Supporting Lymm Rugby Through Transition
Lymm Rugby Club faces a pivotal moment.

Recently moved to the National League West, the club is gearing up for a season that will push their limits, both on and off the pitch.

Longer travel distances for away games mean higher costs – from fueling team transport to overnight stays.

While the squad is enthusiastic and ready for the challenge of new rivals and unfamiliar stadiums, the financial impact is real.

Fundraising efforts like Paul’s cycle are critical, not just to keep the club on track logistically, but to maintain its vibrant role in the community – where families gather, young players dream, and lifelong friendships are built.

Inspired to Give and Achieve

Paul’s goal is ambitious: £10,000.

Yet, his resolve is unwavering. He’s not doing it solely for medals or personal acclaim, but for the place that shaped him and countless others.

The route from Lymm to Redruth – spanning hills and valleys – mirrors the journey of the club itself: sometimes uphill, always forward.

Paul’s initiative is a rallying cry to alumni, fans and locals alike.

Your support means more than donations; it’s a vote of confidence in community, sport, and the spirit that carries past every finish line.

How You Can Help

• Spread the word about Paul’s challenge
