This is a night ride Halloween adventure not to be missed!
This ride will be at an easy pace and will follow the Trans Pennine Trail from Anchorage Lane to the turn-off for Pastures Lodge in Mexborough. Between the TPT and Pastures Lodge there is 500 metres of quiet footpath/road. A short stop on the outside tables for a drink and toilets before returning on the same route with a small section of variation.

There is no need to dress in Halloween gear or decorate your bike. It is up to individual riders to do so if they wish.

Optionally some people will be getting McDonalds before and/or after the ride.
Centurion Road Retail Park is nearby and has a McDonalds.(Note for those driving - you will not be allowed to leave your car in the Centurion Road Retail Park and leave site for our ride due to CCTV - so park at Anchorage Lane free car park instead). This McDonalds is a 5 minute cycle from Anchorage Lane Car park.

This is a social ride together as a group. We pause the ride for punctures sustained. Ultimately riders are individually responsible for their own bike maintenance and own safety. It is always advised helmets are worn, use a bike lock, take a torch with battery for the ride duration, bring tools and spares to repair a puncture etc. (Most important is bring a spare inner tube and pump). Check the ride distance, elevation, duration, terrain and bicycle type of this ride is compatible with your ability and bicycle.

Bring cash/card for cafe.

New riders to the group are very welcome.
We may take some photos during the ride for promoting future rides. If you don't wish to be in any photos, please let me know before the ride.

Note, to join the ride you must book on to the ride using the ‘Lets Ride’ website. Also, please check the website prior to the ride time in the event of ride cancellation.

And a final thought...
Enjoy a ride at night. This is where the trail disappears in darkness and the soul finds its path.
