Corporate events, Charity events and Other services
With 25 years of experience exploring, designing and writing route guides across the UK and Europe, we know how to ensure an amazing adventure is had for all types of riders. Sometimes you will require more than a route map to achieve this, so we offer a range of services and support to help make your adventures and dream journeys become a reality:
We work with a number of businesses to offer a range of exciting events and challenges whether your focus is on team building, staff or client engagement, fundraising or a combination. Our off-the-peg or tailor-made events are designed to inspire and empower participants into achieveing beyond their expectations and to grow their confidence. Whatever the ability, we know how to assist and enable everyone to have a great adventure and experience, even with mixed ability groups.
We offer anything from rider support for a day event, through to complete bespoke route planning and event management of multi-day trips, in the UK and Europe, including all the logistical, accommodation and training plans, whether you have a group of 10 or 100, and can work to with a wide range of budgets.
Our years of cycling experience and events means we know how to take care of every little detail so that everyone can relax and enjoy the journey. Contact us for a copy of our corporate event brochure
We have worked in the charity sector for over 20 years, creating routes all across the UK, and Europe, by bicycle, both on and off-road, as well as walks and runs, both one-day and multi-day. We have designed routes for well over 50 unique charity events, and managed the planning and delivery of these, such as the (now 19 years old) London to Brighton Off-road bike ride, which hosts 2,500 riders riders each year, and multi-day events such as London to Paris (both on and off-road).
Some of our larger client events, such as the British Heart Foundation, Mencap and the MS Society involve high participation numbers, from hundreds to thousands, but we also offer services to enable smaller, local charities such as Havens House Hospice to offer their own fund-raising events by using our expertise and experience. Services range from route signing to unique, custom route design with risk assessments, logistics, planning and event management. We hope to enable any charity, whatever their size and budget, spread their message, riase funds and bring their supporters together in a fun, friendly and joyful experience.
We provide rider support for small groups, from single day rides on established routes in the UK, to multi-day bespoke holidays in Europe, with all the logistics and support taken care of. We work with you closely to ensure you experience an unforgetable adventure that goes beyond just riding the best trails, with the best support and refreshment stops, cycle-friendly accommodation and evening meals.

“We have recently returned with a team of 53 cyclists who undertook the challenge of cycling from Gatwick to Paris over 3 days and we couldn’t be happier with the service provided by the Rough Ride Guide Team who were organised, supportive and knowledgeable. They helped from the route planning stages, through to the logistics as well as providing support along the way. The team are friendly and a pleasure to spend time with and we would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of a ride.” Greg Charman, ESG Group Manager, Air Partner
