From September 4-8, our peloton of 30 intrepid cyclists will take on the gruelling coastline of North-East England from Newcastle to Bamburgh, up to Berwick and into Scotland, via Edinburgh and ending at the beautiful fishing village of Anstruther. This is a ride of 200 miles and 10,000 feet of climbs! The peloton will visit each of the 15 RNLI lifeboat stations along the route, with all funds raised going to the RNLI.
