Owner of a well loved horse? Looking for a fun ride with a difference?
The Suffolk Historic Churches Trust’s ‘Steeple to Steeple Ride’ is a new fun ride in aid of the upkeep of Suffolk’s glorious legacy of some 500 churches & chapels.
For over forty years the Trust has run the ‘Ride & Stride’ bike ride on the second Saturday in September, where supporters are sponsored to cycle from church to church. And six years ago the Trust added a ‘Pedal & Drive’ car tour & rally.
And now the riding fraternity are joining in the fun. Riders of all ages are welcome to join in. The ride will gather at the Lindsey Rose near Bildeston and then take in seven churches and some beautiful country. It is not a race but an eleven mile guided tour – with a photo competition of horse & church and champagne prizes to be won!
Entry is £25
Entries limited so apply early by email to
