Story

Our iconic five-day bike ride will mark the 80th Anniversary of the D-Day landings and remember the sacrifices made by brave servicemen and women.

Starting Sainte-Mere-Eglise we’ll cycle through Normandy, visiting the D-Day beaches, including Omaha, Gold and Juno. We’ll also visit other key historical areas including Bayeux, Lisieux, Bernay and many more before ending in Paris.

The Big Battlefield Bike Ride is now in its 16th year, and thanks to the dedication of our experienced team you won’t find a better camaraderie filled cycling challenge. Our support team is on hand from when you register to when you arrive home. Every detail of the ride is covered, including the ferry over to France, so you just have to focus on pedaling.
