Are you a keen cyclist or interested in sustainability? Registrations are open for the HSBC UK Let’s Ride Southampton event on Sunday 17 June.
Let’s Ride Southampton is free to participate in and you can cycle as much of the 5km loop from Guildhall Square to Southampton Common as you like. You can register your place here, which allows you to collect a colourful ‘bib’.
Our researchers are heavily involved in this event, which is part of measures to promote a more sustainable transport system in Southampton, as well as walking and cycling, which reduces reliance on cars and has a beneficial effect against air pollution.
Across the city, there will be activities such as:
- live music throughout the day on Guildhall Square
- Danny Butler’s Extreme Mountain Bike Stunt Show
- British Cycling’s Go Ride Coaching and Skills Zone
- Wattbike Challenge on the Common
- Bling your Bike with local artists, including those affiliated to the John Hansard Gallery
Full details of the event and activities can be found here.
