Hi guys,
I have signed up to the ride via here and I went to group skills at the end of April. Did I need to get a ticket via eventbrite? I've just realised that maybe I did...
Thanks!

Hey ladies!
Just spoke with the Blue Boar Deli.
They are happy for us to go, I assured them that not everyone (as in 50 people) will arrive at the same time and that the ETA will be between 11-1pm. They said that the Blue Boar takes last orders at 1:15, so be mindful for those leading groups to make sure everyone is informed and if some can’t make it there by that time, they can have a coffee/food stop somewhere else along the way. It shouldn’t be a problem, as it’s only a coffer & cake, rather than a proper food stop.
I’ll be standby on WhatsApp on the day for any issues, so feel free to text me when out. I’ll be in London, both at the Spoke and LMNH to help coordinate.
So sad I can’t ride my bike.. :( -

Hi @EmilyStewart,
I don’t see your name on the Eventbrite list but if you’ve done the GS, your name should already be pre-authorised in case you decide to join ICC.
I will collect all names on the day, so I’ll see you at the Spoke in Sunday! -

Thanks to everyone who came to the Open Ride today! I’m glad you all had such a great time!
Thanks to all the volunteers, leaders and sweepers alike, to the ladies who took care of the charity campaign and everyone else who made this happen! Sharing some of the morning photos below!
Also, whoever was here today and didn’t give their names/contact info to their leader, please get in touch with @SallyB, our membership manager, to provide these. We’ll need these to process your membership, should you wish to join the ICC family!

Islington Cycling Club's annual ladies' open ride is back - and you're invited!
Following the success of all our past Ladies’ Open Rides, we'll be setting off from the Spoke on Holloway Road for a day of riding, chatting and - most importantly - eating cake.
This non-competitive event is a celebration of women's cycling, and the perfect opportunity to warm up for a summer of cycling, as well as a chance to meet other women from ICC and elsewhere who are passionate about all things cycling. You'll also find out all the joys club cycling has to offer, so if you're making up your mind about whether to join a club, come along and see if it's for you!
You'll be able to choose a route of 65km (40 miles) or 85km (52 miles), and we'll regroup at the end for a yummy brunch at Look Mum No Hands!, Old Street.
The event is completely free, and is open to club members and non-club members alike - so tell your friends and let's make this a big one!
Use the link of the event on Eventbrite to share!

We will be doing some fundraising on the day, so if you’d like to contribute, please bring some cash.
Bridging the Gap is a fantastic local charity that offers a free mentoring service to people who have been in trouble with the law, at the risk of offending, homeless or recovering from addiction. The charity is tiny and is run by volunteers, and so any funds raised make a huge difference to the amount of mentoring partnerships they are able to facilitate.

Taking part in the Half the Road ride? Why not consider individual sponsorship and set up your own page at http://www.totalgiving.co.uk/appeal/IslingtonCyclingWomensRide
Whether you're taking part in the ride or not, you can still make a difference for this amazing charity by donating using the link above.
