Right to Play Tour to London 2013 logoCharity Right to Play launches its 2013 Tour to London bike ride
The charity Right To Play, which counts former world champion Mark Cavendish among its celebrity supporters, has launched its 2013 Tour to London bike ride, covering 300 miles over three days.
The trip lasts from 11th to 14th July, starting in Tours where participants will watch the finish of Stage 11 of the Tour de France – and perhaps a Cavendish sprint win – before heading off on the first leg of the journey to London.
It’s the fourth time that Right to Play has staged the ride – last year’s started in Liège, scene of the Tour’s Grand Départ – and retailer Cycle Surgery has been brought on board to provide additional support for the 200 riders expected to take part in 2013.
Registration is £150 plus a £100 travel supplement, and there is a fundraising target of £1,000.
Cavendish himself visited Tanzania earlier this month to see the charity’s work at first hand, and you can find out more about Right To Play and the 2013 Tour to London ride on its UK website.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
I can do the basics, but largely I prefer to take my bike to the LBS when it needs a service, when they check all the big things and sort them out...
Why was this the *second* trial? WtF was up with the jury the first time?
Agree about the blue badge / double yellows ... as you say it's moot in practice....
Those specific numbers might be new, but the problem of drivers racking up points but continuing to drive due to "exceptional hardship" has been a...
There is a link to the 1 page manual which clearly shows how it is used.
Interesting, thanks Rendel
Twas ever thus.
Scrapping free car parks could frighten away shoppers ...
Sort of - it doesn't make anything cleaner, but it makes you care less about the fact it needs cleaning.
Also, perhaps telling that Canyon isn't opening bricks and mortar itself - they're being delivered by experience partners under their own brand,...
