The halfway mark!
Monday 14 March marks Day 3 and the halfway point of the Bishop’s Big Bike Ride. Today the core group of Revd Colin Darling, Dean Geoff Wilson and Bishop David are heading into Dromore Diocese and making 15 stops. We depart from Hillsborough and go as far south as Portadown, finishing in Tullylish.
Details of the route at this link. Come and cheer us on as we cycle to raise awareness of the Down and Dromore Lent Appeal with Bishop’s Appeal.
About
Bishop David and a small, ever–changing group of cyclists is making 83 stops over 6 Days covering approximately 350 Miles, all in support of two projects in partnership with Bishops’ Appeal, Christian Aid and Tearfund. Read about the projects here.
The bishop will cycle into every parish in the diocese and hopes to meet many more of you along the route. Please note that we cannot take cash donations along the way – see below for how to give.
How to give
Please listen out in your parish for ways to give, and if you would like to give as an individual during Lent, please indicate that you are giving to the Down and Dromore Lent Appeal.
