The annual Greenwich & Bexley Cottage Hospice sponsored cycle ride will take place on October 3, 2010 with the choice of 3 start points and 6 routes across 12 or 24 miles.
The 3 start and finish points are the Morrisons store in Erith, Cutty Sark Gardens in Greenwich and Woolwich Arsenal.
The 2009 event attracted over 800 riders but this year the Hospice, a registered charity, is hoping for at least 1000 riders to take part. The ride is ideal for families as most of the route takes you along the Thames Path in a traffic-free environment.
Free bike safety checks will be available at the Erith, Greenwich and Woolwich start points and a mobile workshop will be on hand to help out cyclists with mechanical problems.
All children taking part must wear a cycle helmet.
The event starts at 10am.
Registration costs £10, 16 & over or £5 for 5 to15-year-olds.
