Tommy Godwin Cycle Challenge 2022

Raising funds for the Marie Curie Hospice West Midlands with three great routes for all abilities

The Tommy Godwin Challenge sportive was set up in 2013 to honour the memory of 1948 Olympic and Commonwealth cycling medallist Tommy Godwin. Tommy enjoyed cycling in the Warwickshire lanes and in later years was always keen to encourage other cyclists, whether established stars or total newcomers. With this event we aim to replicate Tommy's experience of enjoying the countryside on our doorstep and his vision of encouraging young riders and others who are starting out on their cycling journeys.

All profits go to fund the West Midlands Marie Curie Hospice in Solihull where Tommy spent his last few days. So far we have raised over £150,000.

There are three routes, 30, 73 and 100km. The 30km ride is for families and the less experienced cyclists. The more challenging 100km sportive route and the intermediate 73km sportive route both have refreshment stops, and chip timing will be available on all routes.

Options -

100km £30

100km Retro Classic £30

73km £28

30km £15 individual or £20 family (up to 2 adults and 2 children)

Participants under 18 on the day of the event will require a signed parent/guardian consent form which should be presented when signing on. Anyone under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
