Join us on 9th July on two wheels for a gentle spin or a 100km leg stretcher as the Tour de Jersey returns for 2023.
Open to all cyclists.
Jersey is packed with diverse, beautiful cycle routes from gentle green lanes, to stunning seascapes and pulse-racing hills. Our nine miles by five give the perfect opportunity for a fantastic day of cycling for all ages, all abilities and all types of cyclists. So why not get on your bike and help Jersey Hospice raise much needed funds for all those who need our specialist care. Sponsored by Ravenscroft, Sunday 9th July promises to be great day out with family and friends.
Choose from one of four routes, built with all abilities in mind. From families with little ones beginning to venture out on their bikes, to cyclists looking to build more confidence over longer distances or avid cyclists ready for the 100km leg stretcher, then we have something for everyone.
