Classic FM Breakfast presenter Dan Walker is undertaking a huge charity bike challenge this October – as he attempts to cycle the full width of the North of England!

Dan’s epic coast-to-coast challenge will see him pedal a 200-mile stretch from the North Sea coast in Withernsea, through his hometown of Sheffield, all the way across to Liverpool.

And he’ll be doing it all in under 48 hours...

There will be some musical moments and a few surprises along the way, to keep Dan motivated during his two-day marathon. It’s going to be a physically and mentally demanding challenge, a journey Dan will undoubtedly never forget!

Dan will take on the epic sea-to-sea journey on Thursday 3 and Friday 4 October – and it’s all to raise money for Classic FM’s official charity Global’s Make Some Noise, which helps change lives across the UK.

Helping people through illness, mental health struggles, poverty and much more, Global’s Make Some Noise are working with brilliant small charities to make sure nobody is left to face life’s toughest challenges alone.
