We're not taking you for a ride 🚴

We're delighted to share that our 2026 event raised an incredible £12,642.60! 🌟

Almost 400 cyclists saddled up to conquer the North Lincolnshire countryside for this year's 11th annual Humber Bridge Sportive , raising money to transform local lives 🙌

All funds raised will go to P • A • U • L For Brain Recovery; empowering people affected by Acquired Brain Injury to rediscover their potential, as well as with other local charities making a difference across the Humber ❤️

Thanks to everyone who joined us to ride on the day, as well as all the volunteers and supporters who helped make the day a success!

Thank you to Barton Town FC for providing their venue as event HQ🙌

Thanks also to our amazing sponsors Smith+Nephew, Cranswick Country Foods Poultry Hull, Wren Kitchens Howdens , Wykeland Group, and Penrose Commercial 🙌❤️

We're already counting down to next year... 🏁

Especially those service users from P • A • U • L For Brain Recovery who so selflessly gave their time back to the community ❤️

Inspirational service users 💙

We’re so grateful to all the service users and family members who gave up their time to help out at the Humber Bridge Sportive last Sunday 🚴

Our team have been humbled by their kindness, generosity, and determination to give back to the community, despite the challenges that brain injury recovery can bring.

We’d like to give a special shout-out to:

Ben and Helen (pictured, centre) for being incredibly enthusiastic and supportive when welcoming riders to the Ulceby feed station. There were many nice comments about your positivity - great work 👏

Jonathan and Sarah (pictured, right) for also helping out at the Ulceby feed station and keeping riders energised and hydrated 💧

Kiernan and his family for assisting at the start line at Barton Town FC, helping the riders get signed in smoothly and seamlessly ✅

Dave, who volunteered as a Marshal along the route at Barton to direct riders and keep them on the right track 🙏

Ian, who also volunteered as a Marshal in the car park to help keep car traffic flowing smoothly 🚗

Kieron, who manned the Elsham feed station for the Short route with his wife, giving riders a vital pit stop along the journey 🍏

Cycling 40 miles at 7 years old! 💯

We want to give a massive shout-out to Freddie, who is the youngest ever rider to take on the Humber Bridge Sportive! 🚴

Freddie’s only just celebrated his 7th birthday, but that didn’t stop him from cycling the 40-mile route with his family today to raise life-changing funds for P • A • U • L For Brain Recovery, supporting local people affected by brain injury 🙌

We’re so proud of Freddie for showing incredible resilience and determination - he’s a real inspiration!

And what did he think of his ride? “A bit tiring but okay.”

That’s the spirit Freddie 👏
