Ben was a member of Edinburgh RC who excelled in cycling, He took part in all forms of cyce sport, on tarmac, boards, grass and mud. His abilities were evidenced by his win in the U16 Boys' Circuit Race Championships in 2013 and as the overall winner of the 2012 Strathpuffer 24 hour mtb race in an U15 team. This appeal coincides with the Inch Park Cyclocross in September.

Following his death in 2018 the club has memorialised him by promoting the spring Ben Forsyth Youth Race Day and by collecting money to screen young athletes for heart conditions. Your contribution will help those who follow their passion just as Ben had done.
