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 2015 by IBikeLondon and has been proudly supported by IBikeLondon and Cyclehoop ever since.
The Pride Ride is between 10 and 15 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 break at the halfway point. The rest stop will have easy access to shops and public toilets.

Pride Ride Safety Information
SAFETY: During the ride we will be cycling on the roads with other traffic. While the IBikeLondon volunteer marshalls will do all that they can to make the ride as safe as possible, everyone is required to ride responsibly and safely. All riders are entirely responsible for their own safety throughout the ride and IBikeLondon will not be held responsible for any injuries or accidents during the ride.
CHECK YOUR BIKE: Please make sure your bike is in good mechanical condition and check your brakes and tyres. If you have a mechanical problem or a puncture during the ride give our volunteer marshals a shout and they will assist where possible.
WEATHER: If the ride has to be cancelled or postponed due to poor or unsafe weather conditions, we will update the event page 12 hours in advance and post across social media (links at the top of this page).
