Guy Barber Memorial Ride to Oxford

Our challenging Guy Barber 100 mile Memorial Charity Ride, now in its 17th year, will take place on Sunday, 30th July, and will be to Oxford this year.

Guy Barber was a member of CTC Northampton and rode charity events using either a butcher’s bike or an Ordinary (penny farthing). Using his road bike, he had two favourite rides from Northampton, one to Cambridge and one to Oxford.  On one occasion, he rode both routes on the same day!

We have 3 possible routes, with 2 starting points, Northampton and Buckingham, giving two rides of 100 or 58 miles, both meeting up at Oxford for lunch. We also have a shorter ride of 35 miles from Buckingham to Hogshaw for coffee and back.

We request a £5 donation collected on the day, which will be donated to the British Heart Foundation.
