FACE partnership, one of the UK’s leading cycle sports and entertainment companies, has launched a unique urban cycling race called Parkour Ride. The experiential event is the first of its kind and will pit different tribes of cyclists against each other in a race through the iconic Tobacco Dock in London on October 4th. The new, multi-discipline elimination tournament takes riders from the worlds of BMX, mountain, fixed-gear and road bikes, and throws them into an extreme performance battle with unique audio visual experiences to get the heart sprinting. Parkour Ride sets two competitors against each over a specially designed eleven story circuit, which has jumps, pinch points and chicanes. The obstacles will be strategically placed to super charge the racing and give the riders a risk and reward choice, to gain the edge over their opponent.
Male and female amateur riders will line up against the Parkour Pros, which include former World BMX Champion,
Liam Phillips, multiple Tour de France stage winner,
David Millar TBC and
Sam Pilgrim who will be riding on behalf of Parkour Ride event partner,
