Lyn Hurst reports on the ride by a group of cycists from London to Barcelona to remember the International Brigades…
Leaving the IBMT’s annual memorial event in London’s Jubilee Gardens on 1 July, the National Clarion Cycling Club 1895 members set off on an epic 20-day, 1,200-mile journey to Barcelona, via Dieppe, Chartres, Bellac, Bergerac, Castelnaudary and Argelès-sur-Mer.
In Barcelona we were the guests of the city’s mayor at a very well organised event attended by 600 people, including many youngsters, at a sports centre.
