Challenge Central Reviews 

Just back from the biggest challenge of my life . The National Three Peaks ! Ben Nevis , Scafell Pike & Snowdon .
An amazing experience organised by Challenge Central . A huge thank you to Steve & Alan . Your support , guidance & encouragement was the best of the best !!

I work for Mental Health UK on the charity partnership with Lloyds Banking Group and I hold the supplier relationship with Challenge Central. They have organised numerous corporate fundraising challenges for us over the past few years. Alan and the team at Challenge Central are by far the best suppliers we've ever worked with. Due to the pandemic we've had to postpone challenges, change locations, cancel activities etc. and Challenge Central are always so accommodating, flexible and understanding. They really do put the customer first. I recently experienced one of their challenges first hand, on a North Coast Scotland cycle challenge - it was excellent. Challenge Central went above and beyond to make it an epic experience for everyone. The support we received on the challenge was great, from moral support, to check points, to accommodation, to bike collection. Considering it was a bespoke challenge which they hadn't done before, it was run really smoothly. I would 100% recommend them to any charity, corporate or individual looking to work with them or take on a challenge.

A brilliant company! The support before the ride answering all emails and messages so quickly was amazing, during the ride they couldn’t do enough for you.

I couldn’t find my passport at one point and was late boarding the ferry Alan and Mark rallied around and helped get me, my bags and bike on board so I didn’t miss the trip. So thankful to then for this!

Going along always checking in, offering hints and tips to improve your cycling. Helping you up climbs, how to ride as a group, all skills I’ll use moving forward.

Don’t hesitate to book with these guys! Exceptional in everyway

Thanks again for all your support.

See you again on the ride to Barcelona!

What an experience, the organisation was fantastic, the second hotel surpassed expectations massively and was exactly what was needed before the ride into the final day, brilliant people and would highly recommend 👏🏼

This company is honestly the best I have encountered for challenges. They are extremely knowledgable and organised. No one was left behind and they support you all the way. There was a group of 6 of us friends who had never done anything like this before and they made sure we all felt like part of the team. They had regular checks on anyone at the back and made sure that no one got lost. Was an amazing experience so a big thank you to the team at Challenge Central

A group of 7 of us booked the London to Amsterdam ride through Challenge Central. We can't thank the team enough for their support and tips to help us complete the ride. The organisation was superb - from the planned stops, to the delicious meals to keeping us hydrated, they were fantastic.
We will be booking London to Paris next year! :-)

London to Amsterdam Cycle July 2022

It has always been an ambition to complete this trip, a chance to test myself physically and be part of a group working towards a common goal. With Challenge Central providing all the planning, support and experience to complete the trip safely, it leaves me to focus on the journey, enjoy the camaraderie and think about what event I should sign up for next.
I can't recommend the team at Challenge Central enough, their experience running events means they can cater for first-timers looking to make a positive change to their lifestyle to seasoned athletes who have probably completed these trips, multiple times. Well done Challenge Central, a first-class experience and an event that I am proud to have completed.

What a fun experience from start to finish. Lovely weather for a bike ride. Challenge Central were amazing, I would highly recommend them to anyone considering pushing themselves. Alone or in a group it doesn’t matter, it will always be an inclusive and fun atmosphere. Well done one and all on the ride and for the excellent support driver.

A fantastic experience cycling from London to Paris. The Challenge Central Team were exceptional. Massive thank you to Lorraine, Alan, Mark and Mike for everything. If you’re looking for a challenge I would definitely recommend these guys.

If you want to tick London to Paris off your bucket list as an individual or an organised corporate event, I can’t recommend Challenge Central enough you just couldn’t fault the trip. This has been a long waited challenge pre covid and they have gone over and beyond in organising and accommodating everybody. Big thank you to the team Selina, Alan, Mark, Mike and Lorraine. A memorable trip, meeting great people and new friends. I’m now looking for my next event and will definitely be booking through them again.

Great trip definitely recommend it, the team are superb and certainly looked after us, cycling in France is such a pleasure beautiful scenery and roads, looking forward to the next one👍

We’ve just completed London to Paris with Alan, Lorraine, Mike and Mark. From start to finish a friendly relaxed approach with professional skills interweaved to deal with any eventuality- and our group had a few! Plenty of stops built in for watering and feeding - the support van was never far away. I loved the way the whole experience gave us the “club riding” experience with a bunch of mates. (I’ve only experienced club organised and self organised cycle trips with friends - this was just as good!)
A good choice of hotels gave a good night’s sleep and breakfast/dinner.
If you’re reading this and thinking of joining Challenge Central go ahead; but my advice would be, if you’ve not given your bike a good going over for a while, to make sure that tyres, cables, chain and brake pads are up to the trip.
Other than that, grab your kit, and go for it!

Possibly the most enjoyable, rewarding and inspiring experience of my life doing the London to Paris cycle ride with challenge central. A super professional and friendly bunch of guys and gals who go out of their way to make sure you get the experience you asked for. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Extremely knowledgable and will definitely be booking another challenge with them soon.

What an amazing challenge run by a fantastic team, I would highly recommend using these guys for any even challenges you are looking to. Thanks again Alan, Mark, Lorraine and Mike. We’ll definitely be booking up another challenge.

A great night up slieve donard. Led by Alan and Adam who were friendly and very experienced.

Just completed a trek of Slieve Donard by night with Alan and Adam from Challenge. It was truly an amazing experience even through the rain and mist. They kept us going steadily to the top where the mist cleared and we got to see the most amazing sunset over County Down. You don't realise what natural beauty is all around you until you do something like this. This adventure with these guys is a must for any bucket list. Don't hesitate....just do it! Thank you Alan and Adam x

An amazing adventure with an awesome group of people! Thank you Adam & Alan for looking after us and keeping us safe. Look forward to doing more adventures with Challenge Central in the near future.
