What is BarbersRide 2025?
BarbersRide 2025 is the ultimate barbershop adventure—a unique annual charity tour that fuses the passion of barbering with the thrill of motorcycling. Now in its ninth year, BarbersRide is roaring back to British roads after recent tours in Europe, with a mission to raise over £30,000 for Make-A-Wish UK, bringing life-changing experiences to seriously ill children and their families.
This high-octane, feel-good event invites barbers, bikers, and anyone who loves community spirit to join a journey across the UK, stopping each night at major barbershop hosts for unforgettable evenings packed with fundraising, live demos, and camaraderie.
