Gearing up for Let's Ride tomorrow - and here are the road closures that will be in place

Thousands are expected to take to the streets in the one-day social family friendly event, which starts at 11am from Guildhall Square.

The free event is a bid to get more people out of their cars and on two wheels

There will be music, food and drink, fun and games, demonstrations, giveaways, activities, challenges, face painting - and that's before you set off on the 6k route.

Organisers HSBC and British Cycling say you don't have to do the whole distance – just as much or as little as you want.

And you don’t need to be an experienced cyclist – there are no cars on the road, so you can wobble, zig-zag and stop as much as you like.

The route is open from 11am-3pm but roads will be closed from 5am – 6pm and may vary on specific roads.
