Leicester → Rotterdam Twitchcon 2026

Am I actually cycling to Twitchcon Rotterdam?
Yeah... Potentially!

After a couple of cheeky beers and some questionable decision-making, I had the idea on stream to cycle all the way from Leicester to Rotterdam.

  • No Training
  • No Plan
  • No Fitness

So, naturally, we're doing this properly!

The Challenge

I'll be cycling from Leicester to Rotterdam for Twitchcon 2026. Google thinks this journey is about 18 hours non-stop. Realistically, this is going to take me about 7 days.

What that means is

  • Long days on the bike
  • Long stream days
  • Regretting this whole thing by day 2

The Deal

If we hit £500 in tips by Sunday 10th May 2026, I WILL DO IT!

If we only get to £400, I will take the easy way out and drive instead.

So you get to decide how much suffering you want to see.

Why £500?

It isn't just a meme goal, it actually covers the trip

  • Accommodation along the route
  • Bike repairs / parts (let's be real)
  • Extra tech / streaming gear
  • Ferry to Rotterdam

This makes the challenge possible

The Route (roughly)

I'll be following the following rough route (this isn't overnight stop locations)

Leicester → Huntington → Cambridge → Colchester → Harwich → Ferry → Hook of Holland → ROTTERDAM BABY!

What You Get

If this happens I'll be

  • IRL streaming the journey
  • Camp Beers
  • Sharing every bad decision

This will either be an amazing adventure or a complete disaster. Either way, it's all banter and content!
