The Big Ride, promoting the LCC's Love London, Go Dutch campaign for safe streets for cycling, will meet in Hyde Park at 11.00am and aims to be a fabulous springtime day out in central London, suitable for all the family. The ride will end on Victoria Embankment around 2pm.

We are providing a feeder ride from Tower Hamlets to the ride start and then an escort back to the borough, to allow everyone to join in even if you aren't confident enough to cycle into central London on your own.

Meet at 09.45 on Mile End Road opposite Stepney Green tube station/Co-op shop, ready for a 10.00 departure.

Download this flyer showing you a map for the meeting point for the ride back. We should be back at Mile End about 15.00. The District Line is running normally on the day so if you prefer you can take your bike back to the East End by train after the ride.

Full distance (feeder ride there, Big Ride and ride back to Mile End) about 17 miles.
