Palace for Life launch new challenge: Bike to Bournemouth

Take on your next challenge and support Palace for Life Foundation by cycling to the Premier League clash between AFC Bournemouth and Crystal Palace F.C. on Saturday 14 March 2020*.

We are looking for eager Palace fans to take on our brand-new challenge of cycling over 100 miles from Selhurst Park to the Vitality Stadium before cheering on the Eagles in the away end with a free ticket, courtesy of Palace for Life.

The Bike to Bournemouth aims to raise vital funds for our work with young south Londoners, whilst encouraging fans to take on a fun new challenge and watch their team in a highly sought after away fixture at the popular Vitality Stadium!

The cycle will see us leave SE25 on the Friday morning and travel through the beautiful Surrey countryside before stopping for a night in Winchester. Refreshed and recharged after a hotel stay we will rise on Saturday to head south to Bournemouth.

We will arrive in Bournemouth with plenty of time to shower and change, eat lunch (and visit the pub!) before the 3pm kick off. You will then join fellow Palace fans in the away end, before we provide you and your bike transport back to Selhurst Park.

This cycling event will cater for all abilities and is not a race, you can cycle as fast or as slow as you would like and will be well supported throughout. It is a great chance for you to meet fellow Palace fans and experience the camaraderie of taking on the challenge together – something that we feel is a special part of all Palace for Life events!

To take part, each cyclist will pledge to raise £500 for Palace for Life Foundation, helping to support our work with young south Londoners and to aspire to give them brighter futures.

The registration fee of £150 includes: 1x night hotel accommodation, professional support throughout the cycle, transport back from the Vitality Stadium to Selhurst Park, a bespoke Palace themed cycling jersey, 2x lunch, 1x dinner and 1x breakfast. Palace for Life will give each cyclist 1x match ticket in the away end.

You can pay the £150 registration fee in instalments, please get in touch with tashstephens@palaceforlife.org to arrange this.
