Cycle Challenges

CAN YOU RISE TO THE CHALLENGE!

.....and make 2012 a year to remember by taking part in The South Downs Way Challenge and cycle the glorious South Downs Way through Sussex and Hampshire.

And what's more....we guarantee that EVERY PENNY you raise through sponsorship goes directly to those in need in Sussex, because an Argus Appeal Cycle Challenge is a 100% charity bike ride.

Whether you are relatively new to cycling or an old hand, we are confident you will have fun and make new friends on our rides. What a great opportunity to set yourself a fitness target for the summer of 2012!

But don't just take our word for it!

‘Excellent surpassed all expectations, extremely well run and well supported, great group of organisers catering for all levels. Food great - I even put on weight!’ Thanks......Pat
