"Dust off your bike and go for a ride" with free guided bike rides in Wandsworth.

British Cycling and Sky have partnered up with Transport for London to offer series of free guided bike rides around the borough.

The scheme aims to get cyclists inspired by Chris Froome's achievements in the Tour de France to "dust off their bike and go for a ride".

Rob McLean, British cycling recreation manager for London said: “It’s one thing watching on television, but nothing quite beats getting outdoors yourself.

"You don’t have to be the next Chris Froome to enjoy our rides – we cater for all ages and abilities, so register for a free ride in Wandsworth today.”

The tours are guided by British Cycling trained ride leaders and cover a range of routes for cyclists of all levels.

Chris Mather, head of behaviour change, surface transport at TfL, said: “If this fantastic summer of cycling inspires you to give cycling a go, British Cycling's guided rides are there for you.

“Guided rides build confidence and help people of all abilities to cycle, widening transport choices and helping to tackle congestion on London’s roads and crowding on buses and trains, making travelling around the Capital more comfortable for all.”
