This is our 8th cycle tour in the charitable RING OF FIRE SERIES. What started out with a bunch of old retired rugby players has turned into something amazing, to date our combined 3,500 miles of cycling efforts have raised almost £700,000 to date (as of Oct 2024) to a number of charities including Willen Hospice, MND, Cardiac Risk in the Young and of course our own beloved Milton Keynes Rugby Club.

Please help us to continue our great work.

This year's challenge will be a UK based ride, 4 days of 90 miles per day plus side activities (challenges) to augment the experience. We will cycle from MKRUFC to Nottinghamshire and then on to the Welsh borders, down to Gloucester and then back home to MKRUFC. I understand as always there will be lots of challenging hills along the way.

However, to take the challenge to another level and to make sure I really suffer to earn my donations, the following weekend, myself and another 5 riders from the ROF, are going to attempt to cycle a further 200 miles in 1 day in the Chase the Sun South (from Kent to Weston-super-Mare). It's a sunrise start and the ride must be finished by sunset!

On the main ride, we expect over 50 riders of mixed abilities cycling to take on the challenge of raising over £75,000 for 3 charities including Willen Hospice, MND and another to be announced.

Any donations of any size are much appreciated and it really means such a difference to the riders, the support crew and of course the charities we are raising funds for. All running costs of this event are covered by the riders themselves or corporate sponsors. All donations go to the nominated charitable causes.
