NSR has the Power to Hydrate

London Marathon Limited, organisers of the Prudential Ride London, tasked NSR with the job of keeping thousands of cyclists hydrated for this inaugural cycle race.   

Throughout the gruelling 140mile course there were regular cycle hubs where cyclists had access to repair services as well as fresh water and toilet facilities.  At six of these sites, located in very remote areas throughout the Surrey countryside, NSR supplied generators to power the water pumps that delivered clean filtered water from huge water tanks to the cyclists on the course.   

Also at two additional sites NSR were required to source power from permanent buildings to power the water pumps. This involved running cables from the buildings to the water distribution equipment’s location on the site  

Some of the world’s top cyclists were involved including Laura Trott who went on to win.  Next year’s event is on Saturday 9th August and is already being planned with 50,000 cyclists currently registered to take part.
