Pedal 2 The Metal 2026 for the Sophie Lancaster Foundation

Lawrence OBrien is raising money for The Sophie Lancaster Foundation

1000 miles, 3 countries, 2 heavy metal festivals 2 channel crossings, 1 idiot

Following the horrific murder of Sophie Lancaster, her family wanted to ensure a lasting legacy to their beautiful, bright creative daughter and so The Sophie Lancaster Foundation was established and it became a registered charity in 2009. We do this through various means including education.

Story

What's up metalheads, O.B. here, and I'm doing it all again a 1000 mile round trip on a bicycle, from the UK to Wacken Open Air in Germany, then back to the UK for Bloodstock open Air.

9 days of cycling and 6 days of Festivals and everything I need for the trip is on my bike with me, I will have Jon joining me on his motorbike to help with some of the campsites and logistics.

The trip is all self funded so every penny you give is donated!

And if you're coming to Bloodstock or Wacken in 2026 be sure to say hello, just look out for the pink helmet
