Organised rides

11am - 1pm (come along at 10am for more bike riding tips and a pre-ride check)

These rides are supervised by a qualified bike leader and the route and pace is set for beginners. Places are limited so please pre-register at the appropriate centre. Please note: Bikes are available to hire free of charge as long as you book at least 24 hours in advance and within the leisure centre opening hours. To hire a bike, you must take out a leisure card at the leisure centre but this is also free of charge.

Pick up a map from your leisure centre, library or the tourist information centre.
