Meet the Ride Leaders

• Les Newsom Hi, I'm Les. Living near wimbedon and when I'm not painting toy soldiers (yes thats my job) I'm out on a bike either as a cycle courier or for fun. I've been riding all my life and think everyone should have the chance to learn and have the freedom of a cycle. Currently riding around on my new road bike and most often seen in Richmond park (no not in the pizza place) also have my trusty hybrid bike that has given good service.
• Cameron Thorp I'm a keen cyclist who is always interested in finding new routes or an excuse to go for a cycle ride.
  It's great being a Sky cycle leader and helping get people back onto their bikes or even on to them for the first time and enjoying the whole experience.
  As a student I have plenty of spare time to cycle and I encourage others to give cycling a go if you have a quiet weekend and want to see if it's the activity for you.
  Until the profile photo issue is resolved I'm the guy in the red helmet wearing glasses.
