Cambridge Cancer Help Cycle ride – 17th May 2026

Whether you are looking for a new challenge, training ride, fun sporting event with friends, colleagues or family this event would be perfect for you.

For 2026, we are offering three routes – 20 mile (short), 40 mile (medium) 60 mile (long) options with fully signposted and GPS provided routes and the opportunity to experience beautiful countryside and idyllic villages.

The entrance fee includes coffee stops, refreshments provided at the start and finish,  easy parking, 1st Aid and basic mechanical support. You will also receive a finishers bag of goodies at the finish line.

We will set out and finish at our Centre based in the David Rayner Building on the Scotsdales site at 120 Cambridge Road, Great Shelford, Cambridge, CB22 5JT with wave times from 7.30-9.30.

Building on feedback from our successful event in 2025, we have introduced a 3rd (40+mile) route and again enlisted professional help to ensure that the day is successful and is exactly what you would expect from an event such as this.

We are a small local charity and 100% of funds raised will go towards our Centre and supporting those that have been affected by a cancer diagnosis.

We encourage participants (where they are able) to raise additional funds through sponsorship and donations to our GivenGain page. Every penny makes a difference. Thank you!

“I don’t know how I would have got through this time without the Centre”
