If you’re fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, at a moderate pace of between 7 and 10 miles an hour. Starting out from Energise Leisure Centre this ride will take us out to the Rawcliffe area using a mixture of on and off road riding. We will cross over the River Ouse twice and sandwiched in the middle will be a ride past Clifton Park and maybe for the brave a quick go on Rawcliffe Bar Country Park’s pump track! Where possible we use Cycle Paths and quiet roads, but there are a few sections that do use busier roads.  Therefore this route is ideally suited to someone looking to further their cycling and get some experience of cycling in various conditions in the company of some like-minded cyclists.
