Biking the North Wales Coast June 2020

Biking for Children in Care is proposing another long distance ride in North Wales for June 2020. We are planning to bike along the North and North West Coast of Wales, starting from Crewe and cycling via Chester, Llandudno, Portmadog and ending up in Aberystwyth. There are several Sustrans routes which we will follow for some of the ride. The planning team are again hard at it working on the accommodation and the route. It will be hilly in parts. There are 50 biking places and we expect the ride to be very popular. If you’d like to reserve your place you should complete the attached application form and send us your deposit by 1st January 2020. If we get too many applicants we will set up a waiting list. Once we have your application form and deposit we will send you an email acknowledgement. In the New Year we will send, by email 1) more information about the Become charity 2) sponsorship forms, and 3) more details of the ride.

 

We will be holding a one day ride along the river to Waterloo on Saturday 21st March starting from Sunningdale Station. You and any family or friends are invited to join us for this ride in aid of children in Bulgaria. We ask for a donation, and suggest £50 on the day. We will be providing lunch.

 

There will also be optional training rides starting from Twickenham Station possible dates for these are as follows: Saturday 4th April; Saturday 25th April; Saturday 16th May; Saturday 30th May 2020
