Pride Ride – London 2023
The Pride Ride
The Pride Ride is an annual bike ride through central London accompanied by a team of experienced marshalls, and with a fierce soundtrack provided by IBikeLondon’s legendary fleet of disco bikes.
With an emphasis on socializing and sightseing the Pride Ride is a family friendly event.
The Pride Ride typically takes place the weekend before the Pride In London festival events.
The first Pride bike ride in London was hosted in 2016 by IBikeLondon and has been proudly supported by IBikeLondon and Cyclehoop ever since.
The Pride Ride is between 15 and 20 miles long and takes place over the course of an afternoon. The ride is customarily held the weekend before Pride in London’s main summer parade event.
The routes are carefully and thoughtfully designed to be at a relaxed pace so that everybody can get to know eachother and enjoy the many sights and sounds of London.
During the ride there will be a 30 minute break at the halfway point. The rest stop will have easy access to shops and public toilets.
