The group meets fortnightly, throughout the year.

We usually cycle for about 2 hours, achieving 18 to 22 miles and the aim is to have an enjoyable and sociable ride with a café break in the middle of it and sometimes a pub lunch at the end instead. Most of our rides take place on designated cycle paths, canal towpaths and 'C' roads. We try to avoid unpleasant weather (our rides are for pleasure!). We will always wait for you if you are a bit slower than the rest of the group.

With regard to equipment, any bike with gears will do but please ensure it is in good, safe condition. We also accept e-bikes. As you can see from photos on this page, a hi-vis jacket is useful for most of the year and we all wear helmets. It is also worth getting a spare inner tube for your bike since it's often the quickest way to deal with a puncture.

We will usually meet at 'Café Viaduct' on Grandstand Road and full details will be on this page and emailed to you over the weekend before each ride. If the riding conditions are likely to be unsuitable on the day, please look out for a cancellation email before 8.30am on the day of the ride.

In the spirit of the u3a, we need everyone to take a turn at devising and leading a ride but not before you have been riding with us for a few months.
