WHO CAN ENTER THE RIDE?
If you are over 16 and can get on a bike then you can do the ride. (We have a problem with young people below 16 as it would invalidate our public liability insurance.)
We have only 150 rider places and want to raise as much sponsorship as possible. You need to have a link to the charity or an association with someone who has been on a BBBR previously. We want people who are committed to raising funds. You must apply by filling in the online application form, and will receive notification when your application has been approved.
Our ideal rider is someone who has not been on a bike much over the last ten years, and for whom this ride will present a real challenge. That way, lots of people will sponsor you!
We are not looking for top-class fitness enthusiasts, but for the person who likes a little bit of chocolate and the regular glass of wine, but wants to reincarnate the body of their youth.
If you have not done a Big Bad Bike Ride before, the 50 mile route will be the ideal ride.
If you have done a ride before, you should be able to achieve the 70 mile ride.
Safety is our prime concern and you need to have a minimum level of fitness and health. When you enter the ride, please note you are entering at your own risk, as we cannot insure against any accidents caused by events beyond our control. From past experience, accidents happen when people try to go too fast. We will do our best to signpost and control the route, but it must be up to each individual to take responsibility for their own personal safety.
My main aim is to give you the pleasure of a real sense of purpose and at the same time to raise as much money as possible for the charity.
DON'T HESITATE - JUST DO IT!
