2024 Great Dorset Bike Ride

The 2023 event was well attended and very enjoyable with a wide variety of cyclists taking part. The event is here. Participation is totally free for everyone, just turn up at the start and ride. The route map and a downloadable gpx  file are as below. But, as in previous years, there is a voluntary charitable collection. As last year, we have chosen the DEC Humanitarian support for Ukraine and set up a website for donations which saves a collection on the day. Please make a donation if you can.

Come and join in this great traditional 50 mile ride in its 44th consecutive year.  There are plenty of refreshment stops on the route and many opportunities for a shorter round trip if energy levels start to sag. Please familiarise your selves of the route because there will be no route markers.
