WHAT HAPPENS ON A LED RIDE

Briefing & Bike Check: The Group Leader will go over the route and expectations. Riders will complete a short practice ride in the car park area to check signals and ensure bikes are in working order.
During the Ride:

1) The Group Leader rides at the front.

2) The Assistant Group Leader stays at the back, ensuring no one is left behind and guiding the group safely through busy areas.

3) Expect a café stop or a rest break—bring means of payment or your own refreshments.

The ride typically lasts 2 hours, but actual cycling time is around 45-50 minutes with plenty of breaks.

Our Session Leaders and Assistants are fully trained and qualified through Cycling UK.

E-bikes, trikes, and adapted cycles are welcome. Please check route suitability in advance if you use an adapted cycle.
