ACTIVITY CHALLENGES TO KEEP YOU ACTIVE

 

Having an activity challenge or goal is a great way to keep yourself motivated. With many of the regular, organised events postponed last year, taking part in a local challenge could be just what you need.

They’re sometimes linked to a local charity as well, which is even better!

We’ll update this page with more challenges as they become available, or if you’re thinking about setting one up, please get in touch with us by emailing [email protected]

Maglia Rosso Loop – Sunday 27 November 2022 10:00

This ride is ideal for anyone who wants to give cycling a go or those who have not ridden in awhile and are a little rusty or seasoned cyclists who want a social ride and meet other like minded people. It is a great introduction to riding in a group without any intimidation or pressure and seeing what it is all about.

The distance is up to 15 miles.
