You, your family and friends are invited to help us to raise lots of money for five important local charities by participating in our Three Counties Cycle Ride.
This year there will be three picturesque routes - 50 miles for the experienced riders, a shorter route of 33 miles and a new very short route of 10 miles intended for families with young children all starting and finishing at the Band Stand in Bracknell's Town Centre.
