Welcome to The Queen Eleanor Cycle Ride, which aims to raise funds towards the on-going work of The Connection at St Martin 's and the Renewal (renovation) of St Martin-in-the-Fields.

The Connection at St Martin 's (CSTM) works with homeless people to provide support, move-on advice, shelter and food.

St Martin-in-the-Fields Church is a vibrant and well-known church in Trafalgar Square at the centre of London, the buildings of which are currently undergoing major renewal work.

The Queen Eleanor Cycle Ride is a 209 mile route which will be covered in self-organised sponsored cycle rides throughout 2008, and eventually also a walking route. The route follows the historic Queen Eleanor Crosses from Lincoln to London.

The 'Launch Event' for this programme took place on the Spring Bank Holiday (2 - 5 May 2008), being a cycle ride for 36 cycling enthusiasts.

The Queen Eleanor Cycle Ride is not-for-profit and aims to minimise its costs so maximising the money raised by the event, with all monies raised being split equally between The Connection at St Martin 's and the Renewal of St-Martin-in-the-Fields.
