About Tour de Force

On 1st August 2009 Dominic Chambers, manager of the only national police children's charity Child Victims of Crime, Ronny Carey, Trustee and Matt Ferguson RFU tag rugby man began their epic journey to cycle to every police headquarters throughout England, Scotland & Wales. The support vehicle is driven by CVOC trustee Steve Johnson.

They are cycling to raise awareness of the charity and its valuable work with the added hope of raising significant funds through individual police forces holding fundraising events.

They are stopping off at each Force Headquarters en route for cheque presentations and press coverage.

If you would like further detailed information of the route and would like to join or sponsor them on a particular leg of the journey please contact info@cvoc.org.uk or phone 01785 227325.

The blog is being updated daily by CVOC trustee Trevor Koschalka.

End of Day 3 - Arrived in Winchester - 129 miles later

The end of our third day and we have arrived in Winchester 129 miles later to be greeted by the Chief Constable with coffee and cake. It has been another fantastic day and we have had great support all along the way. Thanks to everyone at Sussex Police HQ in Lewes, Surrey in Guildford and then finally to Hampshire in Winchester for their welcome and presentations.
A special thank you for the the team from the Rugby Football Union who kept us company along the way today, a particular thank you to Harry Boyle who rode with us all the way from Maidstone to Winchester, having competed in a triathlon yesterday; 'Top Guy'.
Anyway, off too bed now, early start in the morning on our way to Dorchester and then Exeter. Cannot keep the Chief Constable Alex Marshall waiting he is riding with us on the first leg to Dorset!
