Peter Gibbons of Valued Bristol Sport Foundation Nascence partner Sprague-Gibbons is saddling up to raise funds for Bristol Sport Foundation and Frank Water, for whom he is an ambassador, as part of Break the Cycle 2021.

Keen cyclist Peter, along with ex-Olympic cyclist and friend Oli Beckingsale, will be setting off from Bristol on his road bike to cycle 210 miles in a single day – that’s a whopping 338km!

The epic route starts at Abbots Leigh and heads south via Weston, Bridgwater, Bruton, Frome and then back north to Melksham, Malmesbury, Stroud, Gloucester then turning south at Over to Quedgeley, Cinderford, St Briavels, Tintern, Chepstow and finally back to Bristol – it’s the equivalent of cycling from Bristol to Leeds but with c10,000 ft of ascent!

Peter and Oli are looking to raise £3,000 from this ride to help support the vital, life-changing work of both charities. If you are able to donate then please visit his fundraising page.
