Mini Big Green Ride

We leave Harborough town centre and make a bee line for Great Bowden along Station Road. We then head out into the countryside along the virtually traffic free Welham Lane. We turn left in Welham and make our way past the brewery to Thorpe Langton. Once there we turn left again and return to Great Bowden where a pub and cafe await us!

Especially for novice or nervous cyclists, this sustainable, fun ride is designed to be a great introduction to cycling. It will help you burn calories not fossil fuels and build your confidence of a bike.

Once out of town, we'll be on very quiet country lanes with little traffic. In Harborough, we'll stay together as a group to manage the traffic and if necessary, walk across busy roads.

We'll stop along the way as often as we need to for a breather and a drink. There will be the opportunity to enjoy a drink together at the end of the ride.

You must wear a helmet on this ride. It's also a good idea to bring a water bottle and some money.

This ride particularly welcomes new, novice and nervous cyclists. We cycle at a gentle pace, chatting as we go and never leave anyone behind.
