Before the pros take to the roads, we're getting in the saddle and leading the peloton!

In June 2027, an unlikely peloton of seasoned cyclists, occasional riders and complete novices will be swapping home comforts for bike saddles, daily routines for demanding climbs, and the routine of their everyday lives for an extraordinary four-day cycling challenge. United by a shared determination to make a difference, this team of ordinary people will take on an extraordinary challenge in support of Happy Days, a Calderdale-based charity helping people facing homelessness and crisis to rebuild their lives.

Starting in Glasgow on Thursday 24 June, our riders will blaze a trail south, taking in the spectacular scenery, gruelling climbs and exhilarating descents of Keswick, Lancaster and Liverpool, before making their triumphant return to Halifax on Sunday 27 June.

But this is no ordinary bike ride!

Just one week before the world's cycling elite tackle these iconic Tour de France routes, our very own peloton will be putting the roads to the test. We'll be conquering the climbs, powering through the stages and experiencing the very roads where cycling legends will soon battle for the famous yellow jersey.

There may be no yellow jerseys, podium finishes or champagne celebrations on the Champs-Élysées, but there's something far more important at stake.

Every mile pedalled, every hill conquered and every pound raised will help Happy Days transform lives.

From the first pedal stroke in Glasgow to the final sprint into Halifax, this is about more than cycling. It's about determination, teamwork, hope and giving people facing homelessness a chance to start a new chapter.

Whether you’re a seasoned rider or prefer a steady pace, you’ll ride in groups matched by ability, each with its own team leader. With familiar faces returning year after year, the camaraderie is just as special as the challenge itself. Road bikes and e-bikes are welcome

For £300, you’ll get three nights’ B&B, lunches, snacks and your very own Big Ride Home cycling jersey — all part of an unforgettable four-day challenge! But the real highlight? Don’t just take our word for it! Riders come back year after year for the challenge, the friendships and the unbeatable team spirit.

One team. Four days. Epic roads. One incredible cause.

SUPPORT OUR PELOTON. BACK THE RIDE. HELP CHANGE LIVES.
The professionals may follow in our tyre tracks, but together we can lead the way in making a difference!

Join us at Happy Days’ Secret Business Lunch for a captivating glimpse behind the scenes of the intelligence world, with Chris Steele, former foreign intelligence (MI6) officer and diplomat in the British government for 22 years (1987-2009). Chris served in our Moscow embassy (where he witnessed the collapse of the Soviet Union first hand) and Paris, before establishing the private intelligence company, Orbis Business Intelligence, with a former colleague in 2009.

Chris (and Orbis) inadvertently became famous in 2017 when his so-called Trump-Russia Dossier was leaked to the US media. Chris is currently starring in Sky TV’s ‘The Wargame’ with Michael Gove, Nicola Sturgeon, Harriet Harman, Jim Murphy and others.

Whether you're interested in espionage, current affairs, international affairs or simply enjoy a great speaker with extraordinary experiences to share, this is an event not to be missed.
