A HAMPSHIRE country pub is looking to raise money for charity by inviting people to 'Ride to Remembrance'.
The Cricketer's, in Easton, is "riding all the way to the Armistice" with a 72 hour static ride that will begin at 11:00am on Friday November 8.
Using a static smart trainer, people are being invited to buy half-hour cycling slots for £10 and all profits from the event will go directly to support the Royal British Legion.

Andrew said: "Our aim has always been to create a pub that serves as the heart of the village—a welcoming space where everyone feels at home."

He continued: "The support we’ve received for the 'Ride to Remembrance' event has been a true testament to the wonderful people who make up this community.
"It’s inspiring to see so many come together to support such a meaningful cause, and it reminds us just how special Easton is. We still have a few slots left, so if you’d like to join in and show your support, sign up today."
The pub will be using the 'Zwift Ride', a fully adjustable smart trainer and is asking for people to arrive 15 minutes before their scheduled ride time.
The event will finish at 11:00am on Monday November 11, Armistice Day. The 'Ride to Remembrance' will conclude with a two minutes silence.
