Welcome to Bobby on a Bike

The first ever Bobby on a Bike took place during April and May 2002, the plan was to cycle from Police Dept to Police Dept, to enjoy a 'yarn' with fellow law enforcement officers, not forgetting to raise a few dollars for charity. Despite a crash, at the 81 mile point on the first day, the event was a complete success. Charities on both sides of the pond benefited from the event, with over £15,000 being divided, the beneficiaries being, The Prostate Cancer Charity, The National Asthma Campaign (UK), The American Lung Association and The Fred Hutchinson Organization.

In May 2005, Neil Smith and Tony Spry were joined by Jeff Cribb, as they completed another Canada to Mexico trip.

To date the Bobby on a bike team have donated over £32,000 to charity.

The Next Challenge
In June 2008 the BOAB team will attempt to cycle across the United States from the Pacific coast to the Atlantic coast, following a route known as the 'Trans-America', a distance of 4,295 miles, across 3 time zones....joined this time by friends they met in the USA on the first 2 events. This event will be significantly harder, with the cyclists turning the pedals for over 20% more miles per day than during the 2005 event.
