Friend of the Starr Trust and Founder of DaleyFitness, Daley Thompson CBE said: “Never has it been more important to stay fit & healthy! I always believe exercise should be accessible for all, and the Starr Trust bike ride challenge offers just that with its three-tiered cycling groups to cater for all levels. If you are looking for a way to get fit and have fun this year with a fantastic bunch of people, then I urge you to get involved and do yourself proud.”

Rosie Molloy, Fundraising Manager for the Starr Trust said: “A series of training sessions and group meet ups will be organised over the coming months leading up to the challenge. Anyone who is interested in finding out more is welcome to come along and should follow on Social Media to find out dates and locations of training rides and team building meet ups. Or can register their interest by emailing me at: rosie@starrtrust.org ”

All fundraising through this challenge will go directly to support young people in need of help from the charity.

Special thanks to the kind business sponsors without whom the fundraising challenge would not be possible;
