We ask that you read the full details of the ride including the distance and terrain to ensure the ride will be enjoyable for you. With a 10:15 start you could be back for 14:15 if stops are limited and you maintain a 10 mph average.

We will use roads on this route with hills and short sections of main road with fast moving traffic.

We stop for drinks and snacks at Bea's Cafe on the outskirts of Kings Langley.

Please check your bike at home before the ride leaving yourself time to remedy any issues such as brake adjustments and repairing punctures. Bring a spare inner tube of the correct size and valve type for your bike, the tools to repair a puncture, a bike lock, water and a snack. It is advised that you bring money for the café or unexpected circumstances such as taking the train home. Please be mindful that not everywhere takes cash payment. Consider the duration of the ride, the time of day you will be riding and the weather forecast. Dress appropriately ensuring no loose clothing or long laces that could get entangled in bike parts.

We never leave anyone behind
