Ride the North

  • Stunning Aberdeenshire location
  • 2024 date to be announced!
  • A fantastic non-competitive event for seasoned cyclists and aspiring newcomers

Thank you to this year's cyclists!

A huge well done to our cyclists who tackled the gruelling hills and challenging micro climates presented during the 2023 event! Watch this space for details of next year's Ride the North.

Ride the North

Gettting around by bike has to be one of the most rewarding ways to see the beautiful Aberdeenshire countryside. 

Whether you're a newcomer to this mode of transport or a seasoned cyclist, we'd love to have you taking part in Ride the North for Friends of ANCHOR. You'll benefit from training and fundraising support, and you can look the part too with one of our charity branded cycling jerseys. 

As always, Ride the North is a non-competitive event, which can be tackled solo or with a group. It's a supported ride, with mechanical support and support vehicles, signposting, lunches, mobile coffee stops, refreshments and luggage transfer. What more could you ask for! 

Watch this space for information about the event in 2024, and in the meantime, for updates and full information from the organisers, tap here to visit the Ride the North website.
