The Goboka Rwanda Trust, a registered charity based in Bakewell, is staging the event to raise funds to supply a rough-terrain motorbike with maintenance back-up for outreach care in Rwanda.

Organiser Phil Bramhall said: “This is an opportunity for motorcyclists to help make a massive difference to the lives of ordinary people in Rwanda – just by riding some of the best roads in the Peak District.”
