The 2026 Bike Ride, Walk & Drive takes place on Saturday 12th September.

All the information that you need to take part in the 2026 can be found within these pages.

The 2025 event raised an impressive £115,527.99 so thank you to those who contributed to that total. We now turn our attention to the 2026 event.

Since the Bike Ride started in 1983 more than £4.5 million has been raised, with all proceeds directly benefitting Norfolk churches. A tremendous effort by everyone who has taken part, thank you.

You can download a suggested BIKE route. Routes are colour coded; under-10 miles, 10-25 miles and over-25 miles, so hopefully you can find one to suit, just click here. We are hoping to introduce more routes for 2026, so watch this space.

Planning to DRIVE? Why not try one of Hungate Medieval Art’s Rood Screen or Stained Glass Trails, downloadable routes which are available from them at the following lin k, so whilst taking part you can, as an added bonus, take in some of the finest examples of stained glass and screens in the county’s churches.

“Norfolk Churches Trust do an amazing job helping to care for the hundreds of stunning Churches around the Diocese. Coming into Norfolk last September I have become increasingly grateful for the work the Trust do, and I know many of our Churches have benefitted from grants that have helped to preserve the remarkable mission that happens in and around our parishes.”
