Rider Testimonials

We love hearing from our riders about their experiences at our events.

I have done this event three times now and it's never disappointed. It is really well organised, always a lovely atmosphere and the New Forest route is always picturesque no matter the weather.

Viorel, 2024 finisher

An outstanding day out in a wonderful part of the world in the New Forest. A fantastic day all round.

Never give up on children like Paddy

Paddy's Story

It’s truly heartbreaking to know that thousands of children across the UK are living with rare diseases that have no cures. And, that 30% of these children will tragically lose their lives before their fifth birthday.

Paddy was born with a very rare and severe seizure condition, called KCNT1-related epilepsy. The condition has no cure and often leaves children severely disabled. Many never walk or talk and sadly most will have their lives cut painfully short. 

We will NEVER stop fighting for children with rare diseases. That’s why we need your support. To help raise much-needed awareness of rare diseases and to raise urgent funds to support new research that offers all important hope for children like Paddy and their families.
