Wrexham Cycle Challenge: Paddy McGuinness Kicks Off the Pedal Power
The air was buzzing with excitement as the Wrexham Cycle Challenge got underway this weekend, with none other than the hilarious Paddy McGuinness giving the riders a rousing send-off.
The event, which saw hundreds of cyclists take to the streets of Wrexham, aimed to raise money for a fantastic cause – the Wrexham Hope Foundation. This charity provides essential support to people facing hardship in the local community, and the cyclists were determined to make a difference with their hard-earned sweat and leg power.

His enthusiasm was infectious, and it seemed to give the riders an extra boost as they lined up at the starting line.
A Challenging Course, a Worthy Cause
