Whilst the Ride is in progress there will be a selection of stalls run by participating charities for the spectators, friends and families of the riders to enjoy whilst the Ride is underway. The 2014 Ride is the 24th and the route is the same as previous years. It follows the old A3 down to the A272, then along this road to Rogate then turning off to - Borden- Milland- Lynchmere – and then back to the Bohunt Centre a distance of approximately 25 miles. The entire route is sign posted and marshalled, hence the need for adequate numbers to help on this major Liphook event.

Re: Annual Liphook Charity Bike Ride 8th June 2014 - LiDBA (2nd Jun 2014 - 13:53:56) Arrangements for the Ride are now being finalised in readiness for the Ride this forthcoming Sunday. On Saturday evening all the direction, warning and information signs will be erected on the route. Already you no doubt would have noticed the signs warning that The Square will be closed from 9.55 am to approximately 10.20 am. This closure is necessary so that the expected 1000+ riders can negotiate The Square safely as they progress from the Bohunt Centre onto the route following the old A3 down to the A272 junction. This is quite a spectacle and we recommend that you cheer on the Sponsored riders as they pass by. At The Bohunt Centre there will be charity stalls and refreshments for members of the public whilst they await the return of the riders.

Re: Annual Liphook Charity Bike Ride 8th June 2014 - LiDBA (4th Jun 2014 - 20:35:24) The weather forecast for the Ride is dry & sunny and not too hot. This year looks to be one of the best attended in recent years with more than 1000 riders expected on the Main Ride. Entries on the day will boost this number and coupled with the Junior Ride we hope to exceed last years total raised for local charities. Although there will be refreshment stops on the route Riders are encouraged to bring there own drinks to supplement those kindly organised by the Liphook Guides. Riders are also reminded that their bikes should be in good condition to avoid unnecessary problems. The whole route will be patrolled by recovery vehicles. All changes in direction on the route will be marshalled. Best of luck to the Riders and lets hope that your sponsors generously support you.
