Neil Trebble, Andy Medlock, Keith Stewart, Steve Watkins and Stephen Hibberd cycled from The Lamex Stadium to Amsterdam earlier this month.
The three-day trip raised more than £6,500 for Prostate Cancer UK.
Steve organised the trip and said: “It was quite tough but it got easier over time and we managed to raise a fantastic amount of money.”
Registration opens for next year’s event this month and Steve is urging anyone interested to get in touch.
