One of the world’s greatest cycling events, RideLondon, is back this year after a three-year agreement was negotiated between Essex County Council and the London Marathon events organisers to host the events every year until 2026.
It is composed of three elements: RideLondon Essex at four lengths – 100 miles, 60 miles and 30 miles, Freecycle, an eight-mile cycle around central London, and RideLondon Classique, a three-day race for elite female cyclists, with two stages in Essex and one in central London.
