Round Britain By Bike 2025
Sponsored bike ride for the Rare Dementia Support Centre
I am planning to cycle more than 4,100 miles round the coast of Britain to raise £1 million in
the form of 100,000 single, one off, £10 donations from each of my sponsors to cover the entire length of my ride.
The aim of this sponsored ride is to raise funds for the opening of the world’s first Rare Dementia Support Centre at the National Institute for Neurology in Queen Square, London in December 2025.
Thankyou – Bernard Bunting.

I will follow roads close to the coast of England, Wales and Scotland, over a distance of 4,257 miles, climbing hills with a combined total elevation of 57,000 meters – that’s about the same as climbing Everest, from sea level, 8 times in the course of the journey.
I am raising money for the world’s first Rare Dementia Support Centre being created by the National Centre for Neurology in Queen Square, London WC1.
With the solid training everyday riding on average 150 Km per day my perparation is strong. With the weather being on my side, the ride should take a total of 49 days.
