The Great British InnRide – 1,826 Miles, 1 Big Yellow Duck, and 1 Incredible Cause

This year, the Coaching Inn Group proudly teamed up with MIND, our chosen charity for 2025. Together, we’ve committed to raising both money and awareness for the incredible work they do in supporting mental health. Across our pubs, hotels, and restaurants, our teams have already been busy with some fantastic fundraising – but now it’s time for the Central Team to take the spotlight.

And we thought… why not go big? Really big.

So, after much plotting, planning, and probably a little bit of madness, we’re taking on The Great British InnRide - a 1,826-mile cycling challenge that will see us visit every single Coaching Inn location in the country.

Oh, and we won’t be travelling light… we’ll be carrying a BIG yellow CIG duck on our backs the whole way!

We’re aiming to complete this epic adventure by the end of October, bringing with us miles of pedalling, plenty of laughs, and a whole lot of determination to raise as much as we can for MIND.

Every mile we ride is a step closer to making a difference for those facing mental health challenges - and your support will mean the world to us. Whether you can donate, share our page, or cheer us on along the way, you’ll be part of this journey.

Let’s do something unforgettable – together.
