Pilgrims Hospices Cycle Challenge

This annual Cycle Challenge which helps to raise over £90,000 for Pilgrims Hospices, is a fantastic event and usually see’s over 1,000 people get on their bikes to follow the 45-mile, 75-mile or 100-mile routes around the beautiful east Kent countryside.

Kent’s biggest charity ride is back for its 9th year! Get on your bike and explore the beautiful Kent countryside with friends, family and colleagues.

Ride it your way by choosing one of three ride distances and routes:

• The Century: 100 miles – View map
  A circular route connecting all three Pilgrims hospice service areas and incorporating an undulating approach to Dover for the ultimate challenge; always a hit with those looking to test their legs and their lungs to the next level.
• The Challenge: 75 miles – View map
  A circular route visiting our Ashford hospice before turning east through the Elham Valley and onward to the picturesque town of Sandwich. From there, you’ll head through flatter countryside and take in seaside views at Herne Bay before making the final push through the beautiful Thorden Wood.
• The Classic: 45 miles – View map
  A scenic, undulating circular route between the Ashford and Canterbury hospice areas.

THE RIDE STARTS AT: The University of Kent, Sports Pavilion, Canterbury, Kent, CT2 7NZ
