XO Bikes trains ex-offenders as bike mechanics and salespeople to break the cycle of reoffending. It's brilliant. And on May 10 we'll be riding with a hundred others to support XO's amazing idea.

Starting at HMP Wandsworth , we'll head up to High Down prison in the Surrey Hills then back to Herne Hill velodrome via Brixton. It's 125km and it won't be easy.

We think it's worthwhile and the AML team - Jack, Aidan, Duncan, Hugo and Ian - very much appreciate your support so we can help XO do more of their vital work. Thank you.
