I Bike London is back for 2013 and we would love for you to join our first ride of the year: the Love 2 Ride! It will be a free fun and sociable event, going through some of London’s main parks within the South West. To celebrate St Valentine’s day and the love of cycling, let’s all get together: we welcome families, couples and singles.
The ride will start at 11:00am Saturday 16th February where we’ll be leaving from the Achilles Statue at Hyde Park Corner (postcode W1K). After cycling through Hyde Park and Green Park, we will head to Elephant and Castles before going down to Brixton and Clapham. We will cycle up to Battersea Park, then through the Brompton Cemetery and finally end at the pub, the Builder’s Arms, in Kensington around 3.30pm (1 Kensington Court Place, W8 5BJ).
The pace will be relaxed and suitable for children, with breaks along the way. We will provide mechanical assistance if needed. The route covers 35 kilometres (22 miles) and is flat most of the way.
Few rules: It's free. Everyone can join. We do not provide the bikes. For your safety we recommend wearing a helmet, but you’re free not to. We are careful on the road, we pause at stop signs and lights so we don’t disturb other road users.
