This year’s Tour de Penge is on Sunday 18th May.
The Tour de Penge has become a regular part of the Penge festival, and this year we are going to start the ride on Maple Road and impress the cheering crowds as we set off down Penge High Street towards Cator park and then the Waterlink Way up towards Greenwich.
100s of riders of all ages will make their way to Greenwich for a picnic next to the Greenwich Brewery. To have an idea of the ride please check out some photos’s from previous years rides. This will be the 8th edition of the ride first organised by Mark Soole in 2007.
