Cycling England's County Towns

I am raising money for Mind again aiming to cycle to every county town in England (pre-1974 counties) within one month. I previously fundraised for Mind in Autumn 2023 when I cycled the coastline of Great Britain. This was in recognition of the help I had received from Mind when Christina, my wife was ill. Fortunately for us Christina is now completely stable on medication. We are the lucky ones and there is still a huge need for funds to address mental health issues in the UK. There are so many problems and issues caused by not being able to access mental health support when needed. When I needed Mind they were there for me and I was immensely grateful. Therefore I am very keen to raise funds for Mind.

This time I am aiming to cycle to all the county towns in England within one month. There are 42 and I estimate a mileage of just over 2,000 miles. For a full list and the route please visit my web page adamcycles.uk.

I plan to start on 4 October from home in Angmering West Sussex and travel broadly clockwise around the England starting with Chichester then Newport(IOW), Dorchester and so on…

I will be carrying everything I need on my bike. Christina will accompany me like the last time but this time she will be able to drive not use public transport!
