Review of Leicester Skyride 2014

As previously advertised on the Blog, the Leicester Sky ride took place on 24th August.

Apparently attended by a crowd of 14000 cyclists the event took place in decent weather and a great atmosphere.

The route passed through several areas including the Castle, De Montfort University, The Phoenix Theatre, past the Cathedral and Richard III museum and most notably the King Power Stadium, home of Leicester City.

The ride passed along the touch line of the stadium before going into a sprint zone outside the stadium.

Throughout the city there were lots of attractions put on including bike stunt shows and singers.

The Sustrans stall was very well attended and featured exercise bikes as well as all of the normal information.
