Join the Heavy Metal Truants

The Heavy Metal Truants are taking on their annual pilgrimage to Download Festival– and you can still be part of it!

This year’s ride is straight out of a horror movie—in the best way possible. A fearless crew of metalheads will hit the road, riding 175 miles from London to Download and crossing the finish line on Friday the 13th—all while raising funds for children’s charities in the name of heavy metal.

Think you’ve got what it takes? There’s still time to sign up and make history on the road to Donington– or opt for a virtual challenge and do it your way!
