We organise free rides for Cycling UK members.

These rides are a sociable way to explore our cycleway network and find useful routes to use when cycling for everyday journeys. We explore the ancient lanes that have now become cycleways and find the many hidden green spaces across the town.

Most of the route is on the traffic free cycleway network.

There is no planned stop but we do not rush. Costello's cafe at Fairlands park is open before and after the ride for hot drinks and food. On the second Saturday each month, we visit the Farmers' Market which takes place on the High Street in the Old Town.

Bring a drink and snack if you wish and an extra layer or waterproof according to the forecast.

New and returning riders are very welcome.
