Brathay 262 was the brain child of Paul Sutherland. He ran the Brathay 10in10 in 2015, raising over £3000 to help vulnerable children and young people. Paul said, "theres a massive interest in top end cycling events that are technically challenging and take place in stunning settings. A circuit around Windermere ticks all these boxes. Over 10 laps the total ascent is 19,500 feet, the equivalent to cycling up Mount Kilimanjaro, and the distance travelled is 262 miles, equal to a journey from London to Kendal."
