Moving Venue will be providing food stalls at Blackheath Common to help fuel participants for the final ten miles of the Hero Ride event, which will see around 2,000 cyclists pedalling to the finish line on Horse Guards Parade from as far as Paris located 350 miles away.
Matthew Quarendon, director of outdoor catering at Moving Venue, said: "Catering for the Hero Ride gives us a fantastic chance to support fundraising for a very worthy charity and to get involved in our community sporting events, an area of business we are strongly developing at the moment.
"We have a number of keen cyclists among our ranks, so will be donning our lycra as well as our chef’s whites for the day."
As part of the event a number of cyclists will be taking part in the Big Battlefield Bike Ride, taking place across six days based in the battlefields of northern France. They will be joined at Blackheath by 250 Dawn Raid riders travelling from Wiltshire, and more than 900 cyclists taking part in self-organised rides from throughout the UK.
The event will conclude with 100 wounded servicemen, women and veterans leading the riders into central London.
This weekend’s Hero Ride aims to raise more than £2m for the Help for Heroes charity to help wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women and their families.
