On Sunday 30 July, a fantastic team of 33 cyclists took on the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 challenge. The weather provided a fine day for cycling and the team looked glorious in their stylish Save the Rhino cycling jerseys.

Prudential RideLondon is an annual three-day festival of cycling, established in the wake of the London Olympics in 2012. The 100 mile route taken on by Team Rhino forms the highlight of the weekend, with riders finishing on The Mall in central London.

Our riders celebrated conquering the course and their hard work fundraising with Save the Rhino staff and a cold beer at our picnic spot in Green Park. The team fundraising total currently stands at a fantastic £18,073, with more fundraising coming in. You can support our riders by donating to the team page here.
