This is Henley Regatta week and the route will take in the top end of the regatta course to take advantage of the refreshment options and general ambiance. This proved very popular a few years back. This group began in September 2018 as part of the Active Bucks initiative to get county residents more active and healthy. It was added to Let's Ride in 2019. Riders from Active Bucks still join the ride in addition to those booked online. We welcome all those who want to increase their fitness through cycling in a friendly social setting whether beginners or experienced. We meet every Thursday at 10:00am (10:30am in the winter). The normal meeting point is at the National Sports Centre, Bisham Abbey. The total ride time can range from two to four hours.

Our routes are on quiet lanes and easy off-road tracks as much as possible. We try and avoid off-road tracks that are liable to be very wet and muddy.

Along the regatta course are stalls selling various refreshments.

Please check the weather on the day and dress accordingly. Also water and suncream are advised at this time of year. You should also bring a puncture repair kit with either patches or a spare tube. Hybrid style or mountain bikes are ideal. Bikes with narrow, slick tyres may have difficulty with some of the off-road sections. All bikes must be in a safe roadworthy condition. Helmets are required and front and rear lights recommended.
