Sporting Bears Dream Rides
“Dream Rides” is a simple concept where people making an agreed minimum donation to a named charity are offered a free passenger ride in the car of their dreams. The rides have historically been of up to 10 miles duration on public roads. The drivers cover all their own expenses and thus are not seen to be driving for hire or reward. Given the above the integrity of the drivers own insurance is maintained and thus normal passenger cover remains intact.
​
No money raised at “Sporting Bears Dream Rides” goes to anyone other than the charities named – YES that is correct, 100% of all donations will go directly to this years nominated charity, which we are delighted to confirm is 'Wish Upon a Dream'. https://www.wishuponadream.co.uk/
Dream Rides are organised by the Sporting Bears Club and run by club members with help from their friends, all unpaid volunteers! Exotic cars are obvious favourites but a wide range of vehicles always proves popular from exotics, sports, and classics, through muscle, replica and kits to vintage.

For the passengers
Your chance to take a ten mile passenger ride in the car of your dreams simply for a donation to charity.
The driver is usually the private owner who is donating their car and time for free. ALL the money you donate goes to children’s charities in the UK.
​
For the drivers
The enjoyment and satisfaction make the rides such a good time that it can become addictive for the drivers and a wonder that the government does not tax it. It’s smiles all round, for the drivers, their passengers, families and friends. The club only asks for a minimum of four rides a day but many drivers will take all the rides they can get.
