Land's End to Sheffield Cycle Ride · 4 June 2020 ·
It started with a sponsored cycle ride from the Aviva office in Sheffield to the one in York in 2015. Each year we have been joined by more and more people from Aviva offices around the UK and the distances and the challenges have increased. in 2018 We cycled to the office in Norwich over two days and last year from the office in Perth the Sheffield. 360 miles over 4 days. This year we challenged ourselves to cycling 400 miles from Land's End to Sheffield over 4 days. Unfortunately, events have overtaken us, and following government guidance we decided to postpone the ride pending further developments and advice. With the partial lifting of restrictions, and the team's drive to take part in a challenge to raise money for Grief Encounter we have come up with plan B! We will cycle the equivalent route in length and elevation around Sheffield over the same number of days in pairs, while observing "social distancing". So the great annual Aviva cycle ride is back on! Our daily routes will be as follows: Day 1 https://www.strava.com/routes/27162875 Day 2 https://www.strava.com/routes/27165464 Day 3 https://www.strava.com/routes/27165983 Day 4 https://www.strava.com/routes/27166244 Day5 https://www.strava.com/routes/27166825 We are doing this to raise money for the charity Grief Encounter who support families in times of bereavement with days out and counselling. Last year we and our supporters raised £3500.00 which was matched by Aviva and this year we're hoping to smash our target again. Please help us with our challenge by donating, sharing our page and getting the word out. Every penny helps to make a difference. Thank you.
