2022 - Cyprus
In the October of 2022, BICA completed its 21st bike ride around Cyprus. Over 5 days of cycling, 385 miles were completed around the country. We tacked the Troodos mountains which were over 6,000 ft above sea level and together raised over £100,000 for some amazing charities and causes.
