Miles Pedalled

That is our best estimate from what we all achieved last Saturday – but knowing that many went further, it is safe to say that we made it around the World. And for about 40 of you hardy souls, it was the mighty 240 miles, a ‘day-in-the-life’ of the circumnavigation World Record.

But whether you managed 10 miles or 250+, you are all absolute champions for getting involved and I applaud your endurance. Thank you.

Many of you were already fundraising through Doddie Aid for the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation. Some of you got involved in World in the Day only.

Now is the time to rally the troops and make a final fundraising push for the mega miles you did during World in a Day. If you don’t have your own fundraising link, then please use the one above – also linked here.

Thank you to all our guests

Rob Wainwright, Davy Zyw, Alan Murchison, Stuart Hogg, Ally McCoist, Dame Katherine Granger, Jill Douglas, Greig Laidlaw, Rory Lawson, Steve Bate, Eilidh Barbour, Sir Steve Redgrave, Sir Chris Hoy, Jim Hamilton, Hamish Watson, Jamie Ritchie, Dougie Vipond, Kenny Logan, James Lowsley-Williams, John Davidson (The Mad Giraffe), J Chalmers, Mollie Hughes, ALL THE CYCLISTS and you for watching!
And finally, a huge thank you to everyone behind the scenes who has once again pulled World in a Day together. Give them your thanks and if you can, please give them your business.

REWATCH THE Star STudded event

What is it?

The World in a Day virtual event first occurred in 2020, when hundreds of people formed a ‘virtual peloton’, and raised over £230,000 for NHS Charities. This success was amplified in 2021’s World in a Day, where an even greater number of people came together as part of the brilliant Doddie Aid campaign, which raised over £950,000.

In January 2022, we are bringing the event back – pedalling a very long way, whilst going nowhere – fundraising to find a cure and take care of those who have Motor Neurone Disease.

Zoom call for World in a Day

How it works

The event runs between 6am and 8pm on Saturday 29th January and you are invited to take on an epic endurance challenge in the comfort of your garage or home – whilst joining a star studded line up of guests on the all-day Zoom, which makes the time fly-by with stories and inspiration. So many of you have been fundraising brilliantly already and we hope ‘World in a Day’ can bring many of you together.

#donateyourmiles – simple £1 per mile – is one way to turbo boost fundraising efforts as we aim to raise a staggering £1 million!

Register

Between 6am and 8pm you are invited to join the #DoddieAid ‘virtual peloton’ – you will receive the Zoom link and all the information as soon as you register. You do not need any other platform – it all happens on Zoom. However, for those on Zwift, we will organise a meet-up.

The concept is simple – it is 18,000 mile to cycle around the World. How many times can we cycle around the World in a day?

For the big mile hunters, we are looking for a core group to take on the mighty 240 mile challenge – to cycle all day and replicate one day of Mark Beaumont’s record breaking ‘Around the World in 80 Days’. Maybe a 60 miles or 120 is a suitable challenge – but whatever you target, make it tough, and therefore worthy of some sponsorship.

Still not sure how this works?
