Fundraising in top gear

Open-access content Wednesday 29th July 2015

The Worshipful Company of Actuaries' biennial bike ride at the end of May had a very damp start and finish, but that didn't affect the spirits of those taking part.

The guided bike ride weaved 30 miles through the capital, from Southwark to Richmond Park, criss-crossing many Thames bridges along the way, before returning via Wimbledon Common and Clapham.

The Master, Martin Miles, led mainly from the front, although Richmond Park hills in top gear (the mechanism was stuck, honest) proved challenging. Our indefatigable guide was impressed - being heard to comment we were one of the faster groups he'd led and no moans!

The ride raised some £6,000 for the Worshipful Company of Actuaries Charitable Trust, whose main focus is the support of mathematical education.
