Ride for a loved one. Ride for your community. Ride for Rowcroft – Your Way!
Get ready to saddle up – Ride for Rowcroft is back throughout May 2021 and this year it’s Your Way!
It’s just £5 to enter, with no minimum age, and you can cycle at any time in May and choose any route that suits you. Will you take on our 24km ‘Classic’ route, or the more gruelling 32km ‘Haytor Hillclimb’? Or will you create a route of your own, of any length?
The ‘Classic’ 24km route takes in country lanes and a cycle path, and is perfect for cyclists looking to complete their first challenge, beat a personal best or simply enjoy a leisurely ride through the stunning South Devon countryside with friends. For cyclists looking to step it up a gear, the 32km ‘Haytor Hillclimb’ requires plenty of pedal power in return for breath-taking views of Dartmoor.
Please always abide by COVID safety guidelines; you can find the latest guidance on the government website.
You can track your cycle ride using Strava or any other step tracking device. For more information check out our FAQs on how to do this.
The £5 entry fee covers the cost of the medal you will receive for taking part, the postage costs of sending this to you, and the administrative costs of setting up the Ride for Rowcroft – Your Way event.
Money raised from the event will be used to provide end-of-life care to patients in their homes across South Devon. As a charity, Rowcroft’s income has been hit badly by the pandemic, so the support of our community is more important than ever in helping us to fund this essential care.
