This fun, island bike ride is back for another year to raise funds for Les Bourgs Hospice.

The marshalled route starts at the top of Val des Terres at 8.45am on Sunday 28th May 2023 and heads through St Martins and Forest out to Rocquaine to follow the coast road around to North Beach in Town. For those who wish to cycle a shorter route there are additional starting points to join the event at 9.45am by the Imperial Hotel and 10.45am at Grandes Rocques. It is not a race so cyclists may pedal at their own pace but are encouraged to finish by 2pm.

This traditional bank holiday event marks the final day of a month of cycling for the special group who signed up to the iconic Ian Brown’s 30/30 cycle fundraiser, which also raises money for the Hospice. They will be meeting up to cycle along the front together at 11am. This unique sight of so many cyclists in the same jersey always provides a wave of colour snaking along the final stretch of the Rock to Rocque route.

More information about the event including how to register (£15 for adults, £5 for U18s) can be found at www.lesbourgshospice.org.gg. For any queries please email info@lesbourgs.com or ring Liz Stonebridge on 251111.
