Making the news headlines and live TV with our first
event of the year as we organised all of the Team Sky
launch rides and Parade around central London on 4th
January. Led by the likes of Bradley Wiggins, Geraint
Thomas, Edvald Boasson Hagen, Juan Antonia Flecha and
Ben Swift, nearly 300 competition winners joined in 3
rides into St James’s Park from Regents Park, London Eye
and Guildhall. With the Sky News helicopter filming
overhead we had some great scenes as the Pro’s rode to
work at the ‘first day in the office’. Then we had 3
laps of a circuit around the Park taking in the world
famous sights of Buckingham Palace, Horseguards Parade,
the Mall – our ride leaders at times took on the role of
tour guides to the foreign riders in the Team!
