The days are long, the nights are short,what is not to like about the start of summer in the capital?! Here’s our faves spots to hit up this weekend.

Shed those pesky clothes, London; The Naked Bike Ride is here. It’s not just a pilgrimage for the nudists and naturists out there, everyone’s invited. That means you!

There’s seven starting points across the city. Participants then peddle with their peloton to the meet up points to ride as nature intended through central London.

Oh and then there’s a massive after party too (tickets from zilch up.) So all in looks fun and affordable!
