As Bradley Stoke Voice went to print, the Tour de Bristol was just setting off from Stoke Gifford.
A fundraiser for St Peter’s Hospice, the Tour de Bristol is more than just a bike ride. It’s also about the team spirit you find when cycling with more than 1,000 other people, covering distances of 40, 65 or 100km.
It’s also about the pride you feel when your tired legs still get you over the finish line. And knowing that you’re helping people who are facing the toughest times imaginable.
The cycle race started at UWE’s Coldharbour Lane campus and wound all through the region.
