Organised by Rennie Grove Hospice Care, the event helps fund its 24/7 Hospice at Home service across Herts and Bucks.

Last year’s event saw over 500 people pedal off to raise over £30,000 in sponsorship.

It’s hoped that this year’s challenge will raise even more for Rennie Grove, helping it to meet the increasing demand for its services.

Online registration is now open. Riders can choose from a 10kmfamily route, a 35-mile route and a 75-mile marathon of a route.

All routes start and finish in Aylesbury town centre and entry fees depend on the distance chosen.

Perfect for families with young children, the 10km route makes use of the Gemstone cycleways around Aylesbury.

If you’re feeling more adventurous, the 35-mile option takes you out to Kimble, Longwick and as far as Bledlow Ridge, then back through the Hampdens and Butlers Cross.

Riders following the 75-mile route follow the same route, before splitting off to cover villages including Stokenchurch, Ibstone, Fingest, and Latimer, before returning to Aylesbury through Berkhamsted and Wendover.
