Le Tour de Farrier

Coast to Coast Bike Ride

Two coastlines, one weekend – are you up for the challenge?

Book your place now below!

This aim of this special event, hosted by The Farriers Foundation, is to conquer the breadth of Britain by bike, whilst fundraising for two very worthwhile charities: The Farriers Foundation and MacMillan Cancer Support.

Starting with our rear wheels in the Irish Sea at St Bees on the Cumbrian Coast, we will cross some beautiful scenery including the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales and the North Yorkshire Moors before our jubilant finish at Robin Hood’s bay on the East Coast of Yorkshire, taking celebratory photos as we dip our front wheels into the North Sea.

There are 2 ways to fund your challenge

Option 1 – FUNDED CHARITY PLACE WITH FUNDRAISING TARGET 

If you choose this option, you personally pay £200 and then The Farriers Foundation will cover your remaining trip costs of £550.  The remaining funds that you have raised will go straight to the charities. By selecting this option you agree to raise a minimum of £1200 in sponsorship.

Option 2 – Self funding (with sponsorship)

If you choose this option, you pay the trip costs of £750 yourself and then fundraise as much as you can for the charities, or make a personal donation.
