The 2025 event is on Saturday 13th September!

Thank you so much to everyone who took part in the 2024 Bike Ride, Walk & Drive – it was a glorious day and we hope you had a great day out and enjoyed visiting our wonderful churches. A fantastic £122,118 was raised with 600 people taking part including more than 150 first-timers. Let’s hope that 2025 will be just as successful!

Since the Bike Ride started in 1983 an incredible £4.4 million has been raised, with all proceeds directly benefitting Norfolk churches. A tremendous effort by everyone who has taken part, thank you.

If you would like to register for the 2025 event, you can do that now by following the blue Register Online tab on the right and for the first time this year, churches can register their interest too.

NEW for 2025 For the first time this year you can download a suggested BIKE route. Routes are colour coded; under-10 miles, 10-25 miles and over-25 miles, so hopefully you can find one to suit, just click here.

If you are planning to WALK, Steve and Lindsay Davies have kindly once more planned a walking route with 5, 8.5, and 12-mile options starting at Holkham Park, North Gate at 9.15am, see details here, along with a map.

Planning to DRIVE? Why not try one of Hungate Medieval Art’s Rood Screen or Stained Glass Trails, downloadable routes which are available from them at the following lin k, so whilst taking part you can, as an added bonus, take in some of the finest examples of stained glass and screens in the county’s churches.

You can download a flyer to help promote the event here.

“Norfolk Churches Trust do an amazing job helping to care for the hundreds of stunning Churches around the Diocese. Coming into Norfolk last September I have become increasingly grateful for the work the Trust do, and I know many of our Churches have benefitted from grants that have helped to preserve the remarkable mission that happens in and around our parishes.”
