Fox & Tiger Charity Bike & Beer Ride 2026

Back for its fourth year! The Fox & Tiger is proud to be hosting the 2026 Charity Bike and Beer ride - in association with SPEEDHUB Triathlon Store.

Offering the standard 80km route we have used previously, this year also sees the introduction of a slightly longer 102km route to challenge our more advanced riders. Final route GPX files will be sent out to all entrants nearer the time.

Raising money for LOROS Hospice & the Leicestershire MS Therapy centre AT LEAST £10 of your entry fee will go to charity.

Both routes start and finish at the Fox & Tiger pub, Blaby and take in some of south Leicestershire's nicest quiet minor roads and lanes. There will be a feed stop approx. half way around the course, serving water and some cakes to refuel. This is located at Fairfax's view car park, this is the same stop for both the standard and longer route.

Once you arrive back at the pub there is live music provided by the Jamlocks, and all finishers will receive a Beer (or soft drink) and hot food included in their entry fee.

There will be a Trophy for the biggest represented cycling/Triathlon club - so make sure you get all of your club to sign up!

Free parking is located in the adjacent car park: Villers Court, Blaby, LE8 4GD.

YOU ARE REQUIRED TO NAVIGATE THIS ROUTE YOURSELF. The GPX route file is available here:
