DESCRIPCIÓN DEL EVENTO
Join our Founding Trustees Sir Ben Ainslie and Iain Percy OBE, plus INEOS TEAM UK sailors on our eBike4Bart cyclosportive for 2020!

There’s more than enough on the eBike4Bart Greatest London Flat route to keep all levels of cyclists excited and challenged with a total distance of 50km over 2 laps and an elevation of 163m.

A ride of Greatest London Loop begins on the ​Classique route, but only covers a portion of it before turning onto the ​Greater London roads. You are then taken over the bridge, through the subway and into the “Richmond Park” countryside which was part of the January 2018 London expansion​. The subway tunnels carry you back into London, over the bridge and through the start/finish banner. Can you take on the challenge and ride with your sailing heroes? Can your legs take on the arms of INEOS TEAM UK Grinder’s Chris Brittle and Neil Hunter, taking part on their grinding machines?

Pick your subgroup and which of your sailing heroes you’d like to ride with, before setting off around the Greatest London Flat, taking in all the iconic landmarks. Not only will you have the opportunity to interact and ask questions of the lead riders, but there is even more excitement to be had as the ride will be streamed and broadcast live on our Foundation Facebook page and YouTube channels. This will pull in footage from game play, live cycling and interviews with the sailors! We’ll also have a commentator to entertain you and any spectators watching. This really is an event for all friends and family to interact with, whether riding or not.

“Funds raised via eBike4Bart will enable the Andrew Simpson Foundation to continue to reach out and engage with young people around the world to develop their life skills and capabilities by making sailing and watersports accessible, creating a hobby
and passion for life.” Ben Ainslie, founding trustee of the Andrew Simpson Foundation.

Supported by Zwift, eBike4Bart is free to enter. However, we would like to encourage everyone taking part to fundraise for the Andrew Simpson Foundation. The Foundation’s mission is to transform lives through sailing.
