Viking Challenge 2023

We’re pleased once again to be sponsoring this years Viking Challenge where only the mightiest are able to conquer the 30-65km mud filled course.

For those who don’t know, the Viking Challenge is a fun, friendly off-road cycling event set in the Vale of Belvoir countryside. Entrants choose whether they wish to take on the 30km ‘Original Viking’ course, or push themselves for the larger ‘Big Viking’ 55km or ‘Mega Viking’ 65km courses.

Since the first event in 1995 the Viking Challenge, along with their various sponsors, have been raising funds for local schools and charities with last years event featuring over 1,000 participants and raising over £20,000 for good causes. Group Director for Punk’d Protein, Gary Mason, said “It’s great for us to be involved once again with this years Viking Challenge, raising money for local causes. We’ve been sponsoring the event for a few years now and even had employees take on the challenge itself; the protein bars go a long way with the riders after a conquering the mud filled course”.

This years event takes place on Sunday October 1st and is open to everyone, young and old, teams and individuals, both serious and fun cyclists so if you’re interested in entering head on over to their entry page for more information
