Event description


The Cheshire Dash is a cycling challenge to raise money for The Joshua Tree, a charity that exists to support and improve the emotional well-being and mental health of all family members affected by childhood cancers, in the North West of England and North Wales.

“The Joshua Tree is an incredible charity, being both down to earth and yet ambitious to bring the best support to families across the North West and North Wales, who have a child with cancer. Their heart-warming approach and appreciation of our help has inspired us to pull out the stops and raise as much as we can through The Dash. We know you'll all work hard and feel great about supporting these amazing people.” 

Catriona Marshall, founder of Transforming Lives.

The Cheshire Dash is a cycling challenge, (100 miles in one day). We’ve planned an exciting route through the beautiful Cheshire countryside and will be supported all the way by Bentley Manchester. This time we are heading out beyond Chester and looping back via The Joshua Tree centre in Sandiway. The Cheshire Dash 2022 made such a huge difference to The Joshua Tree (raising £60,000) and that’s why we want to support them again in 2023!

  • Up to 4 riding groups to suit your preferred pace, with ride captains leading each group.
  • First Aid support, a sweeper van and Bentley support vehicles.
  • A road bike is essential and riders must be 18 or over on 1 July 2023.
  • Entry is £50 per person, which is non-refundable. This includes your own Cheshire Dash 2023 cycling jersey to wear during the Dash, food and drink throughout the day, total event support (including First Aid support and Group Ride Captains) and a fabulous goody bag!
  • A training schedule, training rides and lots of encouragement will be provided in the run up to the event.
  • Breakfast butties, a picnic lunch, snack stops and a BBQ finish are all included.
  • Invite your family and friends to celebrate with you when you reach the finish line and let’s make a day of it!
  • The fundraising target for The Joshua Tree is a minimum of £200 per rider.
