On Sunday 21st September the London Freewheel event, organized by the Mayor of London, will be taking place with the aim of encouraging more people to cycle around the capital.
It sounds like a great family day out, especially if you have older kids. Participants will be able to cycle round some of London’s most famous roads and landmarks including the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, the Houses of Parliament, the London Eye, Trafalgar Square and Buckingham Palace.
The London Freewheel will not cost you a penny and is even suitable for wimps like me because the route is traffic free 
Due to the huge number of cyclists taking part (some 38,000 odd last year), the organizers suggest that if you go as a family that you all wear the same colour/hat/flag/balloon etc so that you can keep track of each other.
