Nationwide 'Big Ride' to Mallory Park aims to raise cash for Two Wheels for Life charity

Motorcyclists across the UK are being called upon this summer to take part in the inaugural Two Wheels for Life ‘Big Ride’ – a nationwide charity ride-out with a twist. 

Unlike a traditional group ride, this one has no fixed start. On August 16, riders will chart their own course to Mallory Park race circuit, completing challenges along the way set by the likes of Peter Hickman and Niall Mackenzie.

The finish line is the Festival of Motorcycling, which is being hosted by Classic Bike Trackdays and will feature static displays, track sessions, off-road antics, and a Saturday night bash. 

Those taking part need to arrive by 3pm, with evidence of challenges completed. Entry costs £50. Optional track tickets unlock laps of the Leicestershire circuit. 

Riders who raise funds and complete the most challenges will bag prizes, with everyone earning free festival entry and the chance to rub shoulders with racing legends like Randy Mamola.  

Two Wheels for Life support vital medical outreach programmes in rural Africa, where motorcycles provide a lifeline to reaching isolated communities.
