Keen cyclists are invited to join a Skyride along the river from Hampton Court Palace on Sunday.

The 55-minute ride, part of a summer of free cycling events, will be led by trained cycle leaders and promises to be fun for all the family.

Riders will be given a high-visibility vest for the ride, as well as a T-shirt to keep.

Olympic Gold medallist Sir Chris Hoy said: “As much as cycling is my day job, I love getting on my bike at the weekend to wind down and it’s a fantastic way to see a city in a new light.”

Meet outside the palace at 2.30pm if you would like to join in.
