Our 2025 Heroes
Meet our 2025 Participants!
Here they are — the amazing folks who laced up their boots, hopped on their bikes, and threw themselves into this year’s Cosy Bike and Hike!
From muddy trails to windswept hills, they’ve powered through it all with big smiles, bigger hearts, and one goal in mind: raising money for some truly fantastic charities. Whether it was a solo challenge, a team effort, or a family day out, every step and every mile has made a difference.
This page is our way of giving a big cheer and a heartfelt thank you to everyone who took part. You’ve helped support causes that matter — and had a blast doing it.
Scroll down to see the legends who made it all happen!

OUR VOLUNTEERS!
Without the herculean effort from our incredible team of volunteers, both in the lead-up and on the day, the Cosy Bike and Hike fundraiser simply would not have been possible. From mapping out routes and setting up check-in stations, to guiding participants, handing out refreshments, managing safety protocols, and cheering people on with smiles and encouragement — you did it all with unwavering energy and warmth.
Your dedication, patience, and genuine care created an atmosphere that was not only efficient but also welcoming and joyful.
We are beyond grateful for your time, heart, and hard work. Thank you for making Cosy Bike and Hike a truly memorable experience!
