Charity cycle ride: On yer bike - more riders needed!

Open-access content Monday 22nd April 2013 — updated 5.13pm, Wednesday 29th April 2020

The Worshipful Company of Actuaries is organising a cycle ride with a difference in London on Sunday 19 May, as part of its charitable fund raising activities.

The ride will begin at Staple Inn and take in some of the sites made famous during the London Olympics last year before returning to Staple Inn for well-earned refreshments.

All actuaries are warmly invited to take part, but you don't have to be an actuary to get involved, so bring your friends, colleagues and relatives. You don't even need to have a bike, because they can be provided by the London Bicycle Tour Company, which is supplying official tour guides for the event.

The 27-mile route will head south across the river and pass through Greenwich Park, London's oldest Royal Park and scene of Olympic equestrian success, then along to Woolwich. Going back under the river, the final stretch will take a wide circle to Staple Inn via the Olympic Park at Stratford.

All monies raised will go to the Company of Actuaries Charitable Trust, which offers grants to a range of charities supporting the young, disabled and needy, and supports research on the education of mathematics.

If you would like to ride or have any questions, please e-mail [email protected] or write to Alan Smith, c/o The Clerk, The Worshipful Company of Actuaries, Cheapside House, 138 Cheapside, London EC2V 6BW
