What is the Tour de 4?
The Tour de 4 is a cycling challenge with 4 different routes, giving people with all abilities the chance to take part. It was set up by Sir Chris Hoy following his diagnosis with Stage 4 Cancer – he was determined to show others that illness does not define you. The Glasgow based event is packed with community spirit and is the perfect fundraising opportunity for anyone looking to take part in a UK charity bike ride.
Ride for Cure Leukaemia and turn your gears towards challenging perceptions, raising vital awareness and funds, and inspiring hope for everyone affected by cancer.

Tour de 4 Route
Open to all, the Tour de 4 has different distances and challenges to choose from with the full ride and a family ride, to a static cycle challenge – there’s something for everyone. There are 4 different bike rides in Glasgow to choose from this year including:
Red Route – 56 miles
The Red Ride (56 miles) is for seasoned riders who love a challenge. Riders must be above 16 years on event day and under 18’s accompanied by an adult.
Blue Route – 36 miles
At 36 miles, the blue route offers a slightly shorter option for anyone looking to take part in a great, rewarding ride without overdoing it. Riders must be above 16 years on event day and under 18’s accompanied by an adult.
Green Route – 1km
If you’re looking for a family cycling event, this 1km bike ride is absolutely perfect. Explore a dedicated route around the Velodrome with the option to do multiple loops.
No minimum age. Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
Yellow Route – static
Inclusivity is a huge part of the Tour de 4 and the Yellow route offers an alternative for anyone who would prefer to take part in the race with 1-20 minutes on a static bike.

Cycling for cancer
Ride with us in September
‘Blood cancer is the most common cancer in children and teens’
Tour de 4 will accelerate the progress of the groundbreaking ATICUS Network, a world-first initiative dedicated to revolutionising treatments for children with cancer.
Taking place in Glasgow in September 2027, during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, the event will directly support the opening of clinical transplant trials and provide children battling blood cancer with access to the most advanced therapies available, across the 11 children’s hospitals that form the ATICUS Network.
Without The ATICUS Network, there is no coordinated way for children to take part in these vital studies, meaning many are missing out on the latest advances in care.
Find out more about how Cure Leukaemia support patients in Glasgow and across Scotland here.
“I work with children and young people affected by blood cancer, and I see first-hand the impact a diagnosis can have on them and their families. It’s an impact that can be long-lasting and life-changing.
I’m proud to have cycled Tour de 4 2026 in support of Cure Leukaemia. Through my work, I see the vital role Cure Leukaemia plays in supporting people with blood cancer, particularly through the ATICUS Network.”
Dr Nick Heaney, Consultant Haematologist, The Royal Hospital for Children, Glasgow.
