Bike to Stevenage 2026 – The 4th Velo and Blue Away Day Ride!

Saturday 14 March 2026

We’re looking for adventurous Dons fans to join our 4th Velo and Blue Away Day Cycle Challenge – a sponsored 50 mile ride from Plough Lane to Stevenage FC’s Lamex Stadium, finishing with a free away-end ticket to cheer on AFC Wimbledon.

This is your chance to watch The Dons away, meet fellow fans, take on a personal challenge, and raise money to support the Foundation’s community programmes. Our 2025 ride to Gillingham was a huge success, raising £20,000 – and we’re aiming even higher this year.

What to Expect

The ride begins on Saturday morning at the Cherry Red Records Stadium, heading north of the river and following a scenic mix of cycle paths and quiet routes through London. We’ll reach Stevenage in good time to shower, change, and grab lunch before the 3pm kick-off. After the match, riders and bikes will be transported safely back to Plough Lane.

A Ride for Everyone

This event is non-competitive and open to cyclists of all abilities. Go at your own pace – fast or steady – with full support throughout the journey. Every Velo and Blue ride has been defined by an amazing sense of camaraderie among the riders, something truly special among Dons fans.
