Every year hundreds of Hackney school children take to the roads for a mass ride around the borough, organised by the Council to provide a chance for students to practice the skills they’ve learned through national standards cycle training and to help them see how easy it is to travel around Hackney by bike. In 2016, we broke the world record for the total number of people in a ‘bike bus’, in which participants ride together along a set route, picking up people as they go.
This year’s ride took place on Thursday 28 June.
