BOIS Y SGWAR – CORNER TO CORNER RIDE 04 – 06 SEPT 2026
Bois Y Sgwar are a group of guys, most of whom might best be described as past their prime, who have set themselves an annual challenge that raises money for a local charity.
We are based out of Square and Compass on the North Pembrokeshire coast, and have previously raised over £5000 each for Shalom house in 2024, by completing the Welsh 3 Peaks Challenge and in 2025, supporting Get the Boys a Lift, by cycling the coast of Pembrokeshire.
This year, we are aiming to cycle from corner to corner across Wales – from Point of Ayr the most North Easterly point in Wales, to St Davids Cathedral in deep South West Wales – a distance of 196 miles, and climbing a total of almost 14,000 feet, over the weekend 04 – 06 September 2026. We will have 8 riders plus a small support team.
This year we are supporting Sandy Bear charity – which started out in Pembrokeshire but have now spread throughout Wales. Bois Y Sgwar are hugely conscious of the amazing work that they do in supporting children who have suffered bereavement – either parents or siblings, helping them through a hugely difficult period in their young lives. We are proud to support this work and hope that through your kind donations we can raise at least £2,000 to help their essential work.
