History

The Stokesley Charity Cycle Ride started in 1998 when Paul Mackintosh volunteered to do a bike ride in aid of a two-year-old girl called
Chloe Brown who was suffering from a very rare form of cancer. 

From then on, it has gone from strength to strength,
becoming an annual event that has raised tens of thousands of pounds for local charities and causes.

The table below highlights the many good causes to have benefited from this great community event over the years.
