30/30 Challenge | Raising Money for Les Bourgs Hospice

17th Edition

The 30/30 Challenge

The Ian Brown’s Cycle Shop 30 Rides in 30 Days Challenge has reached its seventeenth year. Since the start in 2008 624 Riders have taken part. The total funds raised by them has reached the enormous milestone of £1,113495.85 for Les Bourgs Hospice.

Our main event supporter the last three years has been Specsavers and we are delighted that they have continued as main supporter for 2025 and 2026.

2025 will open shortly.

Entry is limited and so will be filled by those that can commit to the fundraising ethos of previous 30/30 challenges.

The dates for the challenge in 2025 are Day 1 on Saturday 3rd May and ending on Sunday 1st June.

REGISTER YOUR INTEREST

Formal participation will be by those that commit to trying to raise as much as £900 for Les Bourgs (£30 for 30 Days).

Where / How?

You may ride alone or with others. You may ride as near or far as you like. You may ride a bit in the morning and the remainder at night.

On Day One all riders are invited to enjoy a free breakfast together.

Also on the final day riders are invited to ride their final mile together in procession to the end of the Rocque to Rock at North Beach.

Riders also are invited to “The Final Word”, an evening presentation with welcome drinks and buffet when the total of all this year’s fundraising is announced.

Remember your only pledge is that you ride your bike for at least 60 minutes each day. If you need to go away then you may choose to ride your hour on a stationary bike within a hotel’s gymnasium and this is acceptable.
