DETAILS FOR THE DAY & AMAZING PRIZES UP FOR GRABS

We are still so gutted we can’t be together on the day, but it’s so cool to think about you all riding your favourite rides wherever you are. We can’t thank you enough for getting involved and keeping the spirit of the ride alive. You can start at any time on the 19th so no need to be up with the cockerel at sunrise!

Firstly a HUGE thank you to anyone that bought a spangly new VANS x Ride on Nelly jersey, apparently we sold one in just about every UK county and all over the world too – we’ve gone global! This has also raised such valuable money for CALM. A massive thank you to VANS for making this possible.


PLEASE take a picture of you rocking your jersey on your ride and tag #rideonnelly and @calmzone, we’d love to see how bloomin’ cool you look in them!

When you post the piccy tell us WHY your chosen ride is your favourite, we’d love to hear.

The Full Monty was Nelson’s first ever 100miler and his favourite ever ride. That’s our why… what’s yours?

Also, please if possible…Raise A Few Pennies For CALM!!! 
Twist your neighbour’s arm, get your kids to hound your mates, ask the cat, sell your old bike….anything is gold dust to CALM right now as they are supporting more people than ever through this challenging time, currently taking many more calls and webchats than usual. By supporting CALM you will be taking a stand against suicide, with all money raised going directly to their frontline services.
