This event is an ideal activity for those who want to do something special to celebrate a big birthday and to benefit a great charity in the process.

Unlike a run or cycle ride, it requires zero training (though a degree of bravery is required). In previous events, we've had participants ranging in age from 8 to 80, some of whom had disabilities, so it really is an event for all.
