Come along and cycle for the charity of your choice on this heroic 100 mile ride through Wiltshire!

Setting off to the west the route joins the Wylye valley to coast into Wilton, the ancient capital of Wessex then on to Salisbury and its cathedral. Watch out for the optical illusion as you approach - the spire actually gets smaller the closer you get to it! Then it's up the Avon Valley through some stunning villages to the Vale of Pewsey before heading through Savernake Forest to the historic market town of Marlborough. With a final climb up over the ridgeway the route drops back into the Vale of Pewsey to the Finish.
The 100 mile route features chip-timing and web results so after the event, you can see your overall time and average speed along with the opportunity to compare your time with your friends.

A little over a year ago, we launched a home-based respite care service to families of life-limited children living in south Wiltshire. Despite living just a few miles from Dorset, where we have provided care for more than a decade, these Wiltshire families had no access to this sort of frequent support. Now, in response to increasing demand, we are expanding our care county-wide in Wiltshire. Building a small, centrally-located children’s hospice for Wiltshire is integral to our vision of helping more children and families. To complete this landmark £3million project, we now need public support from across the county.


CoppaFeel! was founded in 2009 by Kristin Hallenga, following her diagnosis of secondary breast cancer at 23. She made it her mission to ensure other young people don’t find themselves in a similar situation; where they’re told the cancer cannot be cured because it was found late.
CoppaFeel! want to live in a world where all breast cancers are diagnosed at the earliest stage possible, at which treatments are more effective and survival rates are higher. We want to stamp out late detection and misdiagnosis of breast cancer by ensuring that people know the signs and symptoms of breast cancer, know what their boobs look and feel like normally, check their boobs regularly throughout their lifetime and have the confidence to see their doctor if they spot anything unusual.
Without the support of our fantastic fundraisers, we simply wouldn’t be able to carry out our life-saving work, so thank you for your support and we look forward to welcoming you to #TeamBoobs!
