While we are sad to cancel our traditional Great Shakespeare Ride event, we hope you will share our excitement at our exclusive, virtual newcomer that is guaranteed to get you reaching for your bike. Yes, Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your ears? we have created something completely different with our Tour de Shakespeare Ride. Our 6,657 mile route will take you on an interactive journey from The Shakespeare Hospice in Stratford-upon-Avon via Scotland, Denmark, Italy and more, visiting many of the countries where Shakespeare's plays were set. The great thing about our virtual Tour de Shakespeare Challenge is that you can achieve those miles in your own time, whatever distance you choose, whether that's cycling outdoors or pedalling your way to your target on your exercise bike indoors - yes, you could even cycle whilst watching your favourite movie! Whether riding through the countryside, pushing yourself to the limit up that dreaded hill or tackling the flat terrain on your exercise bike... 'Every Mile Counts' and you are helping to raise awareness about our hospice and amazing nurses. Thank you for your support and entering our Tour de Shakespeare Virtual Challenge
