Again going to get as many people as possible to do this a few have already agreed the day after we completed the 2011 cycle :-)

The classic freshnlo Pedal for Scotland ride, the challenge ride is now in its 14th year. The 51 mile Glasgow to Edinburgh ride is Scotland's biggest bike ride and attracted 8000 participants last year.

The reason for the ride's huge popularity is the combination of a great route that uses a mixture of closed roads, quiet back roads and cycle paths and the fact that it takes in Scotland's two largest cities via stunning countryside. It's the perfect challenge for both regular cyclists and those who haven't cycled in a while - a few weeks training is enough to get in shape.

There are rest stops around every ten miles serving free refreshments, plus a free lunch at the beautiful Linlithgow Palace, topped of with entertainment and activities in Edinburgh, making for the perfect active day out for groups of friends, family or work mates. Transport can also be booked to get you and your bike to the start, or home from the finish.

The Challenge Ride costs £22 + £15 for transport if required to get to the starting point or to return to Glasgow once finished, there is also a £1.50 processing fee for every rider regardless.

Every 4th team member is free except for the £1.50 processing fee and transport, so the £22 will be given to Action Duchenne
