RBL Northern Ride

Three female Army Veterans are cycling the 70 mile route of the RBL Northern Ride to raise monies for the Women's Royal Army Corps (WRAC) Association and the Royal British Legion both of which support ex-service personnel and their families. It is a tough challenge for those who know about cycling and to make it worse it's happening in South Yorkshire so it isn't the flattest of routes! The Ride is organised and run by a group of volunteers, not working for the charities, whose purpose is to to raise awareness in the North of England of the work our Armed Forces and Veterans undertake and the support they require. The three of us cycling are both WRAC Veterans of varied service and two mad companions are Dawn Bagnall and Nicki Bignall. We specifically want to mention that our ride is also in memory of Sue Elksnis, a friend and veteran who we lost unexpectedly in November 2021.

The start is at the Sporting Lodge Hotel, Stainton, Teesside and finish 1/4 mile from the Hotel at the Army Centre at Coulby Newham if you are nearby and wish to see us off.
