Story

We need as many people as possible to hop on their bikes and cycle a few laps of Preston Park Velodrome with us on Sunday 25 June 2017 in an attempt to cycle 'around the world' (in Brighton) in just 12 hours! That's 40,075km by the way!

The reason that we're doing this mammoth challenge is to raise funds for BHT's First Base Day Centre, which provides a range of support including food, health services, showers and laundry facilities, and person-centred advice for people who are rough sleeping in the city.

You don't have to be the next Bradley Wiggins! There's no pressure at all - come along and cycle 1 lap, 10 laps or 1000 laps - we don't mind! Every lap counts and you'll be doing a great thing to support an important local cause!

If you can cycle with us on the day, great! If you can't, please sponsor one of the wonderful people who are helping us to change lives and save lives.

Thank you very much.
