THE London to Brighton Cycle ride is going ahead today with road closures in place.

The London to Brighton Cycle follows the British Heart Foundation ride that happened earlier this year. Today's event raises money for Great Ormond Street Hospital and other charities.

Brighton and Hove City Council have put the closures in place with the following notice.

On Sunday, 11 September 2022 the Skyline - London to Brighton Cycle Ride is taking place and finishes in Madeira Drive, Brighton.
