Ride to Monte Cassino

I'm taking on the Naples to Monte Cassino Cycle for SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity!

I am taking part in the Naples to Monte Cassino Cycle in support of SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity on 1st-5th October 2026.

SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity is a trusted source of support for serving personnel, veterans and their families in their time of need. In 2024 our trained teams of volunteers and employees helped more than 50,000 people, including veterans, serving personnel (regulars and reserves) and their families.

SSAFA understands that behind every uniform is a person. And we are here for that person and their family, any time they need us and in any way they need us.

This is cause is close to my heart as my Grandfather fought at the battle of Monte Cassino with the 4th Reconnaissance Regiment. He was injured in this battle and it is for his memory that I wanted to support this good cause.    

Thank you so much for your kind support!

Great challenge Paul and worthy cause. As a keen cyclist myself and having taken on a few challenging rides I appreciate the effort you’ll need to put in. You couldn’t have picked a more stunningly beautiful route. Enjoy every pedal stroke, and good luck in raising your target.
