Pumpkin.jpgHundreds sign up for Halloween 'Bikepocalypse' ride in London
Pedalling poltergeists, cycling spectres and velo-loving vampires will take to the streets of London on bicycles tomorrow evening, with hundreds of cyclists signing up on Facebook to a free Halloween-themed ride billed as 'Bikepocalypse.'
Organised by the website ibikelondon.com - which comes from the people behind Cyclehoop - 300 people have said they will attend the ride, meeting outside BFI South Bank at 6pm for a 6.30pm start.

The ride will cover around 19 miles at what is described as an "easy" pace, and will take participants across the heart of the capital from Hyde Park in the west to Limehouse in the east.
If you go along, don't forget to upload your pictures to social media with the tag #mycyclingweekend - we'll have a round-up of the best Halloween-themed ones on Monday.

And if you can't wait till tomorrow, London's monthly Critical Mass leaves from the same location at 6.30pm this evening.

I've seen one on the back of a tandem, where it makes a lot of sense. https://www.tandemclassifieds.com/tandem_bikes_for_sale.php?bike=2023_10...
The real cost of motoring has gone down massively over the last 50 years; I'm sure the die hard motorists would tell you otherwise. If I'm wrong...
Newsworthy? Not a chance! According to the msm, the only way to treat illnesses is with expensive drugs: this won't get a mention.
Damn these vigilante cyclists! If only I hadn't been cycling confrontationally and there hadn't been a large white (they've changed round here)...
Like the perceived ride feel, I think that the review is a bit harsh....
"What’s interesting about Orro is that the bikes are designed and assembled In Britain."...
Should have worn hi viz and a helmet with a strap !
I've now bought one. Too early to give a proper review, but so far I'm happy with it.
I actually thought they'd got out of the game years back when they stopped sponsoring cycle teams claiming UCI rules were too restrictive....
Galibier do a fantastic set of photochromic sunglasses for about £60. Can't see myself every spending Oakley money again.
