On Sunday 11 September 2022, Kate and partner Kieren Windsor will leave bigmoose café in Cardiff and cycle anticlockwise around the circumference of Wales. The couple will be relying on the hospitality of strangers as they complete this tour.Using bamboo, a renewable and carbon-effective product, for the bikes they have filed down themselves from six individual pieces, they hope companies and individuals will realise that we can change to a more sustainable way of living without compromising performance or activities.They’re inviting cyclists to join them on the last section of their tour. The leg starts at 10am in Swansea on Saturday 9th July and they will pass through Cowbridge, Cardiff Bay (where cyclists can also join the leg) and finish at BigMoose cafe.Kate, 43, only started training for athletic success in her early 30s following a relationship breakdown that forced her to re-evaluate her life and focus on her passions. Within two years she was crowned world champion in long-distance triathlon in 2014 and subsequently broke 3 world records in static cycling in 2021. Kieren, 49, has never participated in any solo sports and only recently took up cycling.In addition to the Tour de Wales, on 5th June 2023 (World Environment Day), Kate Strong will embark on a 3-month cycle challenge covering over 3,000 miles cycle challenge around the circumference of England, Scotland and Wales. She will be cycling in the “red zone”, areas that are highly likely to be affected by sea level changes directly due to climate change. During Challenge 3000, Kate will stop at 30 official locations and plant over 3,000 trees. She will also give talks and host workshops about sustainability and the simple changes we can make to mitigate the effects of climate change.Kate says “Through Challenge 3000, I want to connect communities to nature and to each other. We all are being impacted by the climate crisis and my intention is to inspire people to work together and create a radical solution.” If you’d like to donate to Bigmoose Charity, please visit the Just Giving page: https://www.justgiving.com/tourdewales2022 For more information about Kate Strong and the upcoming adventures please visit https://katestrong.global/adventuresl Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
