London to Amsterdam Charity Bike Ride 2024
Supporting The Sucden Financial Community Fund
After last year’s successful London to Paris bike ride, which raised over £17,000 for charity, our team this year will take on London to Amsterdam in September 2024.
Once again supported by specialist ride partner, Saddledrunk, the ride will cover approximately 240km over two days, taking us from London to Harwich International Port, with an overnight ferry to the Hook of Holland. From there the team will take the scenic coastal road to Amsterdam, finishing at the offices of Sucden Coffee.
We are continuing our partnership with the East End Community Foundation (EECF) to tackle inequality across Hackney, Newham, Tower Hamlets and the City of London, and the ride is one of the many ways we aim to support them during 2024.
We do also recognise that riders have other causes close to their hearts, so this year, we are also giving riders the option to support a charity of their choice.
Thank you to all our sponsors who are supporting the event this year, and we wish all our riders the best of luck!
Update: The ride is now complete!
Huge congratulations to our team of riders, who safely made it from our office in London to Amsterdam, all in the name of charity!
The team set off from our office in London early on Sunday, September 15th, for the 146km ride to Harwich International port, where they caught the overnight ferry to Hook of Holland.
They rode another 94km in the wind from Hook of Holland into Amsterdam, with a quick stop at the Rijksmuseum, before heading to Sucden Coffee's offices in Amsterdam for a debrief and celebration!
So far, we have raised over £15,000 for the East End Community Foundation. You can still donate using the link below and watch a short video of our riders on their journey!
