The Peace Cycle

The Peace Cycle will begin at a rally in London's Trafalgar Square.

People from all kinds of faiths and backgrounds will come together to begin an amazing journey to Jerusalem.

For six weeks they will cycle through France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, and into Israel. They will ride into the West Bank and cycle through Palestinian towns and villages to Jerusalem, and on to Bethlehem's Manger Square.

Muslims, Jews and Christians, people from all races and religions, will ride side by side to show they believe in peace and justice for all the people of the Middle East.

As the cyclists ride through the towns and cities of Europe, they will be joined by others, some riding for just one day, some for the whole journey, but all demonstrating their belief that to justly end the occupation of Palestine will at last bring an end to the cycle of violence.
