Come and join us on this ladies steady MTB ride where we will follow the tracks around Rivi in search of Santas sleigh and sampling festive fayre at some point during or at the end of the ride. Various terrain will be cycled from grassy fields to gravel tracks and everything in between. As it is a MTB ride, you must have a strong mindset and not be a ‘snowflake’ as there will be sections that may seem challenging initially, but the route is designed to be achievable to all who ‘believe’. MTB bikes only on this ride. *** Ebikes are welcome on this ride but there are gates and stiles where you will need to lift your OWN bike***

As always, no helmet, no ride. Please dress for the weather. It is better to have layers to take off rather than not have any to put on! Please ensure you have plenty of water and snacks.

On MTB rides, you must carry a rear mech hanger and chain link for your own bike along with spare tubes/tubeless kit. Please ensure your emergency contacts are aware of your approx. location and the contact details are up to date on the lets ride site.
