This year's challenge will be the fourth running of our flagship event, with previous events attracting great support with over 450 riders participating. A very pleasing feature of past events has been the number of family groups out to have a bit of fun on their bikes, great to see!

Our sincere thanks go to our many generous sponsors whose support enable us to make a healthy profit for our chosen charities. Our thanks also go to the Geraldine and Districts Lioness for their invaluable support in running this and other events during the year. [view our sponsors list here]

With three separate tracks catering for riders of all ages and abilities, we can assure all riders and families
of a great day out.
"So dust off the bike and come join the challenge!
