The 100,000 Mile #WinterChallenege is JoyRiders big fund raiser each year.  Together everyone who joins the challenge are trying to ride 100,000 miles between 1 December 2021 and 28 February 2022.  We’re also trying to raise £20,000.

It costs £8 for an adult to join – and there are teen (£6) and kid (£4) categories too.  Everyone who joins is able to set up their own fund-raising page so they can ask family and friends to support their efforts – and support JoyRiders.  You can upload your miles via a Strava link, or manually.
