Sunday Saunter to the 2024 Freecycle event

This ride will lead you up to London to join the Freecycle event described below. Once we join the Freecycle route we will try to complete one loop together, although depending on how crowded the route is, we may get split up so you should be confident in your ability to complete the route independently.
From then on, as a private citizen you will be able to ride as many loops as you wish as well as spending as much or as little time as you wish at the special festival zones.
Your leader(s) will complete one loop and then cross back over the river in search of a quiet cafe before returning to Cator park.
Note if you wish to ride more than one loop, you will be responsible for making your own arrangements to get home. If you do not wish to cycle home, the route passes close to Charing Cross, Waterloo, Blackfriars and Cannon Street stations which all have regular services back to New Beckenham or Beckenham Hill.
Please only sign up if you are confident about this aspect of the day.
