Pontefract Park

Not cycled for a while and looking for an easy way to get back in the saddle? Fancy a fun way to get your friends or kids riding? Our Easygoing rides are great for building confidence for all abilities and ages along relaxed, mostly traffic-free routes. They're up to six miles long, with a gentle pace of around six miles an hour. Join us for a lap of Pontefract Racecourse which we will run at a trot rather than a gallop! We will start with a mini circuit of the boating lake before stretching our legs on a lap of the racecourse. The lap will begin on the path on the inside of the racecourse before switching at halfway to the outside where we will set ourselves of for the run to the finish. There is a little climb as we approach the end of our lap, which will then reward us with a slight downhill run to the finish. We will have some great views of the racecourse as we make our way round, so if you are feeling like a thoroughbred why not let our Ride Leaders take you for an optional second lap.
