This September, a small band of K2 riders will be taking on the Babble Ride Across Britain, and cycling from Land’s End to John o’Groats.
Across nine epic days, the riders will cover 980 miles of the most beautiful and scenic landscapes accessible on two wheels. The K2 Team are taking on this bucket list biking challenge to raise money for the K2 Foundation. Head over to our video library to hear the latest from the K2 Team.

Ahead of the main event, we caught up with the riders to find out how they’re feeling about the challenge.
In our rider interviews we ask about their inspiration, preparations and motivation, as well as digging into how events like these benefit not only K2’s people but also our partners and clients.
