Event details uncovered

by Abel Ryder

We have exclusively uncovered the crucial details of the day. This map shows the circuit of London streets that will be open only to cyclists.

"Its a chance to enjoy a view of London youve never seen before" said Mark Watts from the Mayor of Londons Office. "You can pedal at your leisure past sights like The Houses of Parliament, the Thames and Buckingham Palace. Its free and anyone can be part of it – so sign up now."

The entire route is only nine miles in total. So it’s not some gruelling cycle marathon, it’s just a nice day out for the whole family.

However, its not just about cycling this route. According to organisers, getting there will be half the fun, with a host of Freewheel Hubs around the capital where people can meet up and cycle in together. Plus, once you get there, you can stop off and chill out at The Freewheel Festival.
