A guided ride incorporating some of the beautiful greenspaces of south Swindon including Coate Water, Broome Manor, Wichelstowe Canal and the Old Town Railway Path.

The route is mainly traffic-free but we do use a few short sections of quiet residential streets. Some of the route is not tarmacked (e.g gravel) so hybrid and mountain bikes are more suitable.

We'll stop along the way at orienteering points and whenever the group needs to. This is a social ride so we will not be going fast.

Under 18s must wear a helmet and we recommend that adults do too but this is optional.

We never leave anyone behind
