Event overview
This unique event offers more than just a scenic ride; it’s a tour through time, with three days of pedalling with purpose in the cycling capital of the world.
This is a chance to immerse yourself in Allied Forces’ history and Dutch culture, honour heroes, whilst celebrating the victory and liberation of the Netherlands.
Ride with the Royal British Legion to join our North Sea neighbours in pedalling through the Netherlands’ historic journey and celebrate the nation’s official Liberation Day, a final milestone in the lead up to the much anticipated 80th anniversary of VE day.
To conclude the festivities, dinner will be served in the vibrant courtyard of the iconic Hotel de Wereld, the location where the surrender papers were signed by the Germans, ending the war in the Netherlands.
Become one of the top fundraisers and you’ll get the chance to stay at the Hotel de Wereld on the final night!
