Ride London - Londons weekend of cycling 2013
London will build on Great Britains success at the Olympic Games this year - not to mention the increased interest following the Tour de France - with a weekend of events in the capital next year.
On the Saturday an eight mile family fun ride will take place for up to 70000 cyclists on a loop of closed roads around London's landmarks.
On the Sunday up to 20000 amateur, club and professional riders will take part in a 100 mile ride, based on much of the route of the 2012 Games.
You can enter the ballot at http://www.ridelondon.co.uk/Events/100.htm
So, whilst you can't play football at Wembley, or tennis at Wimbledon - you can ride in the tracks of your heroes!
It is hoped that the event will become the cycling equivalent of the London Marathon.
Get involved - and say you were there when it all started!!
Let's hope that we can keep the momentum in the support for cycling, and that part of the legacy of the games will be increased safety for cyclists - and include considering the cyclists perspective when road and infrastructure projects are at the planning stages.
Let's make London a city fit for cyclists!
