Women in Logistics NetCycling: Celebrating Women Ride

London

Saturday 4 July, 2026

A Haiku, courtesy of perplexity, summarising the event - from WiL Founder Member, Kevin Ford:

A city of women, from west to square,
Statues and stories in London air;
From Twiggy’s swing to Noor’s brave stand,
Their paths and voices shape the land.

Women in Logistics is pleased to invite you to a special NetCycling event in London, following the 'Celebrating Women Ride', and organised by Kevin Ford.

This friendly group ride will explore some of London’s public sculptures and memorials celebrating remarkable women, offering a relaxed opportunity to connect with others from across the logistics community while discovering inspiring stories along the route.

The route is approximately 13 miles, starting at Hyde Park Corner and finishing at Russell Square Gardens, and is suitable for confident cyclists who are comfortable riding on public roads.
