Cash raised through their fundraising venture is in aid of charity Cares4Kids which supports disadvantaged children and young people in the UK and overseas.
In the past the pair have raised thousands of pounds for the cause from two previous two-wheeled challenges which saw them pedal through the sweltering heat of the Jordanian desert, South America, India and Peru.
Mr Sinclair was forced to miss out on a trip to Nepal due to illness.

Mr Sinclair, 66, a branch manager at Jarrow flooring company, Durastic, said: “There will be cyclists from all over the country taking part in the ride.
“We have done lots of bike rides in the past but it’s all for a good cause. When you are out in these places you see the impact the money you are raising have on their lives.
