With this year's Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 unable to go ahead we have teamed up with Evolution Fitness Studio who are hosting a virtual Ride London cycle. This is your chance to ride the 100 miles of this iconic undulating course in your own home.
One effect of COVID-19 has been to cancel or delay many key fundraising events and activities, and we’re already certain that will cost us literally millions of pounds. But with virtual events like this there are still ways that you can join our team of lifesavers and fundraise for us in 2020.
