Thank you for Suppoting The Great Big Ride
The Great Big Ride 2026
A huge effort from everyone involved
The Great Big Ride brought young people, families, riders, walkers, cyclists and supporters together to raise vital funds for Autism In Racing.
We have passed the £3,000 marker
£3,145 raised so far
That means we are now 63% of the way to our £5,000 target, with £1,855 left to raise.
As sponsorships continue to filter through, we are asking for one final push to help us reach the finish line.
Donate to The Great Big RideThank you to everyone fundraising
We want to say a huge thank you to every person who has taken part, donated, collected sponsorship, shared the campaign or helped make the day possible.
From children riding ponies, to families walking together, cyclists taking on their own challenge and supporters giving their time behind the scenes, every effort has helped shine a light on the work of Autism In Racing.
The event itself may have taken place, but the fundraising is still continuing. Every pound raised helps us continue autism-friendly race days, community experiences and mentoring for autistic and neurodivergent people across racing.

We will be sharing more photos, videos and updates from everyone who took part across our social media channels.
Please follow, comment, share and tag Autism In Racing in your own Great Big Ride posts so we can celebrate the full community effort.
A message from our Founder
“Every step has brought us closer.”
“Seeing families, riders, cyclists, walkers and supporters come together for The Great Big Ride has been incredibly moving. My own family were proud to be part of the effort too.
We have passed the £3,000 marker, but we are not at the finish line yet. Every donation helps us continue autism-friendly race days, community experiences and mentoring across racing.
Thank you to everyone who has walked, ridden, cycled, donated, volunteered or shared our message.”
