Santa's on a Bike event cancelled

A festive event this weekend has been called off due to the immanent arrival of Storm Darragh.

Plan.com’s 'Santa’s on a Bike 2024' which was meant to place on Saturday has been called off.

Chief People Officer at Plan.com, Nicola Patterson said this:

“It is with a heavy heart that I officially announce the cancellation of Santa’s on a Bike 2024 this Saturday, due to the imminent arrival of Storm Darragh, bringing extremely high winds and heavy rain to the island.

This comes with huge disappointment to myself, the brilliant Santa’s on a Bike Team and absolutely everyone involved in the event, but we of course have to put the safety of our Santas first.

With massive thank you to the Isle of Man Constabulary for their support and to every single one of you who has donated, played golf, given raffle prizes, decorated your bike, bought a Santa suit, bought a raffle ticket and everything else you have all done to get involved – we could not do it without you all and I promise this will never put us off, we were so excited to start this iconic island event outside our office this year so we will do everything in our power to get our Santa’s back on bikes in 2025.

We look forward to seeing you all next year.”
