Well a new Olympic road show is aiming to make sure people know as much as possible about the games and the opportunities 2012 will bring, and on Saturday 26th January it鈥檚 coming to Barking town centre.

It鈥檚 just a months until the capital takes over from Beijing as the Olympic host city, and the 鈥淕et set London road show鈥� is part of the preparations to ensure we're all ready.

There'll be information about how local businesses can find out how they can get involved in contracts for the games.

You'll also be able to find out about new sports facilities planned in the borough.

And for young Olympic hopefuls there'll be information about how to get funding to help with their training.

Lord Sebastian Coe who is Chairman of the London 2012 Organising Committee, explained that:

鈥渨e want London 2012 to be 鈥楨veryone鈥檚 Games鈥�, with a wide range of opportunities for Londoners to get involved, not just in the summer of 2012, but starting now.

If you've got any thoughts about the Olympics and how they'll affect you or the borough I'd love to hear from you. Or perhaps you're a young athlete from the area who鈥檚 working towards taking part? Drop me an email at lebo.diseko@bbc.co.uk

You can catch the road show at Vicarage Fields shopping centre between 10 am and 6 pm on Saturday January 26th.
