This is a challenge to see how many people we can encourage to have a go at riding 250 km in a week. Our goal is 160 people cycling 250 km in a week, which is the equivalent of cycling around the world.

The challenge was originally created for a group who should have been riding from Lisbon to Seville this month. 'Old duffers, young whippersnappers, all cyclists welcome. Riding at least 250 km in a week on bike, Zwift, Peleton, Wattbike to compensate what should have been a weeks holiday away'.

One of our riders said he'd do something charitable personally. "So here we go = If we get 100 people to do 250 km each over 7 days, I'll donate £5k to the NHS heros. I will donate another £5k to the charity of someone's choice - that someone is the person who has the highest total - kilometres * elevation over their 7 days. That should spice things up a bit ❤". The Bikecation team makes the final decision on the winner.

There is absolutely no obligation to raise money, but we have set up a Justgiving page for those who would like to raise funds for the NHS heros.

Good luck and please maintain social distancing and government guidelines at all times !
