Summer Solstice – London to Manchester

We are incredibly excited to offer our ‘extreme and endurance’ loving cycling supporters another amazing long distance event; opportunity to conquer ‘double-century’, riding from Central London to Manchester… well, Timperley to be exact!  All this on 14th June – one of the longest Saturdays of 2025!

We will start our adventure – setting off from our Hotel (Travelodge Southwark) in Southbank before taking group photo just down the road – featuring  iconic London Skyline as a backdrop… just as the sun rises at 4.45am. From there we have approx. 210 miles journey to Manchester, to be completed before the sun sets at 21.39. Nearly 15 hours in total!  Provisional route can be viewed HERE.

There is also a 150 miles option, starting at a little more reasonable 8.30am in Buckingham, before joining the same route near Milton Keynes. Provisional route can be viewed HERE.

£85 entry fee (includes transport for you and your bike from Manchester to London on Friday, and fully supported ride on Saturday).

Accommodation (Travelodge Southwarks @ £54.5 based on two sharing / limited £109 for single occupancy) will be in addition to the entry donation and the payment for this will be due no later than month before (14th May 2025).

Please note that the places are strictly limited and they are likely to fill quickly, so register early to avoid disappointment.
