Coast to Coast 2026

On 22-23 August 2026, our team of six will take on the Coast to Coast cycling challenge across the north of England to raise money for the InfraRed Charitable Foundation. The riders are Richard Crawford, Stewart Orrell, Monty, and Alec, supported by our invaluable logistics team, Jemima and Jess. Between us, we'll be covering the miles, moving the equipment, navigating the route, keeping bikes rolling, and doing whatever else is required to get everyone safely from one coast to the other. This is the third major cycling fundraising challenge undertaken in support of the Foundation. Previous rides included a cycling expedition in Iceland and last year's Wales challenge. With the support of friends, family, colleagues, and clients, those rides raised more than £11,000 for the Foundation, and we're hoping to add significantly to that total this year. The challenge itself will not be easy. We'll face long distances, steep climbs, unpredictable weather, tired legs, and more than a few moments where we'll question whose idea this was in the first place. But every mile ridden will be for a worthwhile cause. Whether you can donate £10, £25, £50, or simply help spread the word, your support will make a real difference. Thank you for helping us support the work of the InfraRed Charitable Foundation. Please donate whatever you can and encourage others to do the same.
