Two Wheels for Life are calling all bikers to join us as we launch our first ever Big Ride, taking place on Saturday 16th August. join the likes of MotoGP™ legend Randy Mamola in a day of madcap fun venturing through the English countryside taking part in challenges set by the likes of instagram biker Harvey Rides Bikes, TT rider Peter Hickman, and motorcycle brand The Bike Shed Moto Co. ending at Leicestershire’s Mallory Park for laps of the track (for those who buy track access tickets) and entry to The Festival of Motorcycling
The Big Ride is a brand new event for 2025 that gives you the chance to chance to rub shoulders with racing legends like Randy Mamola and Niall Mackenzie on Saturday at Mallory Park, and have a lot of fun and raise funds for the only charity that shows that motorcycles save lives, getting vital life-saving healthcare to some of the hardest to reach people across Africa
How it works
This is a ride-out with a destination, but no beginning. You decide where to start, and how to get to the finishing point, with plenty of fun along the way!
Plan your own route to Mallory Park from your starting point. The only condition is that you arrive by 3pm so give yourself plenty of time
We will send participants a list of challenges in advance of the day and you can choose to complete as many as you want. Set by big names in the world of motorcycling, our challenges will test your skill, resourcefulness and ingenuity!
Our challengers want to see evidence, so don’t forget your smartphone. All you need to do is share the tasks you’ve completed by sharing photos and tagging #TheBigRide. We’ll share more details of how to do this in advance
The three riders who complete the most challenges along the way will win Two Wheels for Life official merchandise
