Bowker Motor Group are proud to announce their sponsorship of this year’s Ribble Valley Ride. The event had its debut last year and everyone was impressed by the professionalism of the organisers -the Rotary Clubs of Accrington and Clitheroe, who include senior Rotarian Malcolm Baldwin and long-distance charity cyclist and sportive enthusiast Bill Honeywell (aka @CancerBikeMan).

This year the Ribble Valley Ride will be the final event in the week-long Ribble Valley Cycle Festival, and has a choice of 25-, 60- and 100-mile routes, all of which take in some of the best roads and scenery the Ribble Valley and Yorkshire Dales have to offer.

Bowker Motor Group will be at the Whalley start/finish venue, and are delighted to be associated with the other main sponsors – Beacon Bikes, Dare2B Clothing, and Envair Limited.  We’ll be supporting the Rosemere Cancer Foundation, CRY and Dan’s Trust, so join us on this great event by entering now at www.ribblevalleyride.org!
