We send used bicycles to Africa to improve access to water, education, jobs

Story

The club will be taking on a dramatic and challenging route including the largest continuous gradient in England as they tackle the Yorkshire stages of the Tour de France at the start of their York to London challenge on Thursday 30 July. The riders will finish by taking on the Prudential Ride London 160 km cyclosportive through London and the Surrey hills on 2nd August. The riders’ combined distance will be the equivalent to riding from London to Mumbai.

We are aiming to raise a total of £40,000 from individual and corporate sponsors. Riders have nominated a local or national social or environmental charity that is making a difference in their local area.

This is our first charity event and we want to really make an impact with it. And we would be delighted if you could support in any way you can.

About the charity

Re-Cycle (Bikes to Africa)

Verified by JustGiving

RCN 1063570
We collect used bicycles in the UK and we ship them, in containers, to people who need them in Africa. Some people living in rural African communities walk miles everyday to reach water, school, work or healthcare. Bikes are a sustainable mode of transport and help change lives for many families.
