On the 27th May 2025, an inexperienced rabble of cyclists from Lansdown Cricket Club will embark on a mammoth bike ride, raising money for our 200 For 200 campaign and incredible local charities – Dorothy House, RUHX, Bath Gateway out and About, The Ruth Strauss Foundation and LCCs Cricket in State Schools project.

The LCC Big Bike Ride will see those 18 riders cycle from Durham to Combe Park via every test cricket ground in England – that’s 850kms in Just four days!

Because of the way that fundraising pages works – and the fact that we are raising money for more than one charity – there are five sponsorship links that you can choose from. Money donated through these links goes directly to the charity and you can add gift aid too! The links are:

Not only are the senior folk taking on that big challenge – our junior members are taking part too by riding the gruelling final 15 miles from Radstock to Bath. You can donate to the junior riders by following the one overall link here:

The Big Ride will roll back into HQ on Friday evening of the 30th May – target arrival 6.30pm to coincide with a big party and a few beers and a long sit down! Join us for that party!

With riders from all corners of our club, it’s a brilliant initiative and we hope to raise as much money as possible for these great causes.

Thanks for your support!
