Route information
The aim of this challenging three day ride is to visit all three Children's Hospice South West hospices while cycling through the beautiful Cornish, Devonshire and Somerset countryside admiring the views, enjoy the camaraderie with fellow riders and conquering the tough terrain!
The event commences with registration on the Thursday evening St Austell, before riders set off from Little Harbour on Friday morning. The first day will offer a challenge to our cyclists as you tackle the hills to ride out of Cornwall towards Bideford for our first nights stop.
Saturday offers cyclists the opportunity to take in a special visit to Little Bridge House before they set off on a cycle taking in breath taking views across Exmoor as we travel towards our overnight stop in Taunton.
Sunday offers cyclists the exciting and emotional challenge of Cheddar Gorge as they cycle on with a huge sense of achievement and pride towards our very special finish at Charlton Farm, where friends and families can welcome you.
