APRIL24 HUB Ride and TRASH FREE TRAILS Family Ride, Leigh Woods

This is the family Hub Ride - all ages, all bikes. Just come along for an hour of free, family, fresh air fun. You will remain responsible for your child(ren) during the ride.

We will meet at the main Leigh Woods carpark and ride at 2pm. Please aim to arrive around 1.45. We will be done by 3.15.

We will most likely break into groups. This is not a 'led' ride but a social ride. If you need a bike for yourself or your child (and helmets) these can be rented from Pedal Progression FOR FREE. Just email Ollie at PP directly or email shredders. Please factor in the time you need to go over to Ashton Court and collect your bikes.

Please book ONE ticket but just say it's for 'family Wilson' (for example). Thanks. Invite your friends. Bring your neighbours. Let's get out on the trails en masse!

You will need to be self sufficient for you and your kids. A well maintained bike, helmet, water, tools and spares are a good idea! You will be responsible for yourself and your children throughout the ride. Please make sure helmets fit and children have gloves.

You should ride in a maximum ratio of 1 adult to 2 children.

Remember, if you need to hire a bike and/or helmet please get in touch via [email protected]. Thanks. This is currently free thanks to our British Cycling funding. Woohoo!

Note - the April hub ride will be a Trash Free Trails (https://www.trashfreetrails.org/) litter pick and ride. Please bring along a bag and litter picker if you have one. We will stop in a few places and do some picking up to help the trails stay beautiful. We are riding to support our wonderful Bristol trails, in association with Ride Bristol, the trail association that looks after our Bristol mountain biking trails. Thanks Ride Bristol, we appreciate your hard work!

Thank you! We are just about to have 4 new ride leaders (in April!) thanks to parents' ongoing support. It is hugely appreciated and means more kids shredding the trails :-)
