London to Brighton Dive Ride for Comic Relief!


London School of Diving and BMG Scooters have joined forces to arrange a novel event in aid of Comic Relief.

The London to Brighton Dive Ride!

Setting off from the centre of London and following the famous London to Brighton route, a group of Scuba Divers in diving gear will be riding their scooters to the famous seaside town of Brighton. On arrival, they will dismount and plunge to the depths beneath Brighton pier to try and recover the lost treasure of the Red Nose.

We would like to get as many people as possible to ride with us. Even if you do not dive, we would love you ride with us. You will have to wear pyjamas over your clothes though supporting the Evening Standard's Comic Relief Campaign!

If you dive, but don't ride you can also join in for the 'plunge' at Brighton!

To join all we ask is that you raise a minimum of £100 for comic relief.

Apart from having a lot of fun and getting some odd looks, we are all doing this for a great cause which is Comic Relief.
Please join with us. It will be different!

In order to take part, you will need to register using the following:

comicrelief@lsdscuba.com
020 8878 5381

More details to follow...

Note: All riders and divers will be dressed/kitted out safely for the activities in which they are participating and all road safety and scuba diving best practices will be adhered to.
