Over 400 of you jumped on your bikes and took on our 50km, 100km and 100-mile routes through the beautiful Warwickshire and Cotswolds countryside to raise vital funds for The Myton Hospices.
Thanks to your incredible support, an amazing £64,448 was raised! This could fund the running cost of our Inpatient Unit at Warwick Myton Hospice for 12 days.
Whether you were riding in memory of a loved one, challenging yourself to a new distance, or simply soaking up the atmosphere, you’ve helped to ensure we can continue providing our services free of charge for people living with life-limiting illnesses, and their families, across Coventry and Warwickshire. Your support keep our wheels turning, and we truly couldn’t do it without you.
Natalie Walker, Events & Campaigns Manager at The Myton Hospices, said:
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who took part, volunteered and supported our Cycle Challenge this year. The atmosphere on the day was fantastic and the money raised will make such a meaningful difference to the patients and families we care for. Thank you!
We’d like to take a moment to thank everyone who helped make the day such a success.
Our thanks have to go to Naveed Chowdry and Flo and the Elephant Photography – our volunteer photographers who donated their time and talent to capture the day.

We’d like to say thank you to all the local businesses and supermarkets that generously donated food and refreshments to stock our rest stops.
And finally, an enormous thank you to our dedicated volunteers, suppliers and our wonderful event sponsor, The Meriden Hospital. We couldn’t do it without your support!
