Holsworthy Peloton’s Annual Charity Bike Ride
On Sunday 17th August 2025, Holsworthy’s Mayor, Councillor Jon Hutchings, had an early morning start as he was invited to officially set off the riders for the Holsworthy Peloton’s Annual Charity Bike Ride.
Before the event began, the Mayor spoke with a number of participants and welcomed visiting peloton groups from across Devon and Cornwall, including Newquay, Saltash and Ilfracombe.
At 9am, cyclists departed in small groups to take on routes of 25, 42 or 65 miles!
The event was held in support of two local charities: The Holsworthy Area Sports Pavilion and Holsworthy Food Bank.
Holsworthy Town Council would like to congratulate the Holsworthy Peloton for organising such a successful event and thank all the riders who took part to support these important community causes.
