Starting point

This gentle route is entirely traffic-free. Riders can appreciate all the joys of Cassiobury Park - one of the Top Ten National Award Winning Green Flag Status Parks & Green Spaces! The route is mainly flat and is ideal for families and anyone looking to boost their confidence on a bike! :) Beginners & those who haven't cycled for ages are warmly welcome! :)

It's called the Cassiobury Park 'Special' because Watford Borough Council has granted us 'Special Permission' to ride certain paths normally for pedestrians only. We thank the Council for their trust in us, and really look forward to taking you on this ride which we can only do a limited number of times per year - so it really is special & not one to miss! :)

You are warmly invited to stay on at The Café in the Park after the ride for group social time over tea & homemade cake - though we understand if you have to get going after the ride to get home for Sunday lunch.

Please bring a spare inner tube in case of a puncture - as it's easier to change an inner tube than repair a puncture. Watford Cycle Hub sell inner tubes from £4.50 new should you need to purchase one.

Please check your bike is in good working order before the ride - especially that your brakes are working & your tyres are pumped and wear clothing suitable for the weather conditions and perhaps a backpack so you can put on or take off layers as needed. Also bring some money for our cafe stop if you would like to buy a drink, snack or light lunch.

Watford Cycle Hub can check over your bike and we can pump up your tyres for you if you come in good time before the ride. If your bike might need a little more TLC or hasn't been ridden for a while, you can always bring it in for a free assessment. Watford Cycle Hub are a Not-For-Profit, Community Enterprise and promise to give you an honest price if your bike needs fixing, fine tuning or a full service. :)

We look forward to riding with you. :)
