Bike 'n Hike is a fun day out where you get sponsored to visit beautiful historic churches by cycling, walking, or any mode of transport on a route of your choice. Many churches host afternoon teas or heritage events and you should receive a warm welcome and often refreshments.

This year the challenge is to break the £100,000 barrier! Half the sponsor money goes to the church named by the person who takes part, and the rest (plus Gift Aid) to the Herts and Herts Historic Churches Trust.  bit.ly/4xZ1IGf
