Biking for Children in Care is planning its 14th sponsored long distance bike ride for 2015. This year we have a new and exciting variation ... we will meet at 18.15 hrs at the ferry terminal in Portsmouth Harbour in order to sail on the overnight ferry on the evening of Wednesday 24th June to St Malo. The bikes will need to be delivered to Twickenham the day before for loading and transporting in the truck. We will return to Portsmouth on the evening of Monday 29th June.
The ride starts at 9.15 am from Sunningdale Station (on the Waterloo- Reading train line). We provide a leader for the ride and a back marker - we ride as a group. There will be a lunch stop (12.30 to 1.30 ish) at Twickenham Yacht Club, Riverside, Twickenham. TW1 3DL (Supporters and ‘half way’ joiners/leavers are welcome). It is expected that we will arrive at the London Eye next to Waterloo Station by 4.30 pm approximately. Some of us may celebrate at with a beer.

Happy New Year to all of you interested in Biking for Children in Care events planned for 2014
The Planning Team have been hard at work since the AGM in October. We are well on the way to sorting the long distance sponsored ride in Normandy (26th to 30th June) in aid of The Who Cares? Trust. The one day March ride along the Thames from Sunningdale (via a lunch stop in Twickenham) will be on Saturday 15th March in aid of projects for children in Bulgaria and Namibia.
We had a very successful, well supported AGM on 4th October 2013. The total raised from the Holland Ride for the Who Cares? Trust eventually rose to a magnificent £45,008 and from the March ride £3044 raised for the Namibia and Bulgarian projects.
