Ride in the 2010 London Bikeathon to raise money for Leukaemia Research. You don't have to be super fit to participate as there will be three circuits of different lengths (starting from Ham House, Royal Chelsea Hospital and Thames Barrier Park). The 2010 event will be on 27th June and you can sign up from January for this fun and fundraising bike ride.
New to Cycling? Not sure if it is for you? Don't want to spend out on new bike before you know? Then why not try a Bike for Free. The team at "On Your Bike" based at London Bridge are offering newcomers to cycling the chance to try cycling for upto one week on one of their latest hire bikes. If you like it then the cost of hire will be deducted from the price of a new bike thus making your trial free. If you don't take to cycling then you simply pay for the Hire at normal rates. Isn't it time you got "On your Bike".
