Full details are at www.lfa2008.org/, but I’ve listed the main rides below (which are led by Southwark Cyclists):

I am writing to you from Walk the Walk, a grant making charity that is not only dedicated to raising money and awareness for vital breast cancer causes, but passionate about encouraging a healthy lifestyle to support prevention. Every year thousands of brave women and men take to the streets in the UK and across the world, wearing decorated bras to Power Walk challenges from 3 miles to 100 miles all with one united aim of raising millions of pounds for vital breast cancer causes.
My reason for writing is that we are in need of a strong team of enthusiastic volunteers for The Playtex MoonWalk 2008. On Saturday, 17th May 15,000 women and men will set off at midnight to Power Walk a marathon around London wearing decorated bras, with that one united aim. We could not hold the event without the help of 1,500 willing volunteers who carry out a variety of essential tasks. more »

I’m planning to organise a ride on Easter Monday, 24 March (yes, that’s right, the day after my Easter Sunday ride).
The plan is to go somewhere south and/or west of London by train and ride back towards London with a tailwind. Details TBA - depends on engineering work. Watch this space.
Current favourite is train to Rowland’s Castle then ride to Guildford through some seriously good scenery and seriously quiet places.

Congratulations to Simon Miller and Nick Wells for successfully completing PBP (that’s a 1200k audax in under 96hrs). I hope we’ll get a proper report soon, but I gather that, just to add to the punishment, it rained pretty steadily throughout.
