Sign up for the FORCE Santa Cycle and Cruise

FORCE Cancer Charity’s annual Santa Cycle and Cruise has a new look for 2023.

The popular family ride from Topsham to Exmouth was under threat from the closure of a section of the Exe Estuary Trail later this year.

Determined not to disappoint supporters who use the Santa Cycle to kickstart their Christmas, FORCE leapt into action to save the day.

The ride on Sunday November 19 will now start and finish at the Double Locks pub alongside Exeter Canal.

The 150 participants, all wearing colourful Santa suits, will ride the cycle path for three miles to Topsham Quay.

Bicycles will be left under guard of Santa’s special helpers while the riders take a mini cruise on the Exe Estuary aboard a Stuart Line Cruises boat.

You can pre-order Sunday lunch via www.doublelocks.com/

There will be first aid cover for you and any bike problems will be tackled by the Bike Shed elves, who always provide invaluable back-up.

Wilkinson Grant, one of the South West’s leading independent property agents and acquisition specialists, is sponsoring this unique event.
