Vulpine is to host a new charity cycling event, dubbed the CycloGames, at Hackney’s Oval Space this Sunday from mid day until 6pm.
The free to enter event will centre around a series of fun events, including the Cyclehoop track stand championships, a Brompton fastest fold challenge, Rollapaluza sprints, a ‘most impressive quads’ title, among many other quirky events. Up to £200 cash is available to the winner of each event.
Guest judges include ITV’s Ned Boulting, actor and comedian Michael Smilie, Kenny Van Vlaminck and Nemone Metaxas from 6Music.
The Games will also host shopping stalls from the likes of Donhou, The London Bike Kitchen, Rouleur, Milltag, the LCC and Handmade Cyclist, among many others.
Live music from the Maccabees and Nemone Metaxas will keep crowds entertained.
Charities set to benefit from the event are the Herne Hill Velodrome, Wheels for Wellbeing and Rollapaluza’s Outreach efforts.
