Join us for a friendly bike ride to explore the local area, keep active, build cycling confidence and have fun.

This short monthly bike ride is suitable for everyone – we get moving at a gentle pace with regular stops along the way whenever we need to. We usually cycle about 5-6 miles in total and always have a longer stop at a café to relax with refreshments when we reach halfway. The whole ride takes about two hours including the break.

The ride is especially suitable for you if any of the following apply:

  * you have recently learned or are returning to cycling and would like to build your confidence at cycling in the local area.
  * you would like to improve your overall fitness with some gentle exercise and movement – it’s a similar level of effort to going for a walk.
  * you are keen to spend time outdoors connecting with nature and the local community.
  * you would like to meet people and take part in a fun activity together.

We have bikes available to borrow and can give your bike a checkup before we start.
