1,100 miles cycled 

21 countries travelled 

7 days. One unforgettable journey. 

The Yorkshire Beast Unleashed has officially concluded, and after a week filled with endurance, determination, and teamwork, Team Bike emerged victorious.   

Led by Martin Mansell, Team Bike cycled from Leeds Bradford Airport to Nice, covering over 1,100 miles in just seven days. This incredible journey required a significant physical effort, long hours, and challenging terrain.   

Meanwhile, Steve Dennis and Team EV completed an extensive 3,300 mile electric road trip through 21 countries, navigating a complex route across Europe and the realities of long-distance EV infrastructure. Both teams faced different challenges but shared the same ultimate goal.   

Their journey aimed to raise funds for two outstanding causes: 

 -  Candlelighters, which supports children with cancer and their families in Yorkshire, and 

 -  Alzheimer’s Research UK, which funds crucial research to understand and combat dementia. 

They were successful in raising over an incredible £54,000.

We’re proud to have been able to support the Yorkshire Beast Unleashed, an initiative that brings people together through determination, teamwork, and a shared commitment to making a difference.

What a remarkable journey it has been! From country roads to city streets, mountain climbs to border crossings, this event serves as a powerful reminder of what can be achieved when individuals come together for a shared cause. 

Thank you to the Yorkshire Beast Unleashed team, Green Motion, U - Save franchisees, Team EV, Team Bike, and everyone who donated, followed, and supported us along the way. 

21 countries. 1 goal. A challenge to remember. 

See you at the next one!
