Our ride starts from Leavesden Cycle Hub and heads to Hunton Bridge, Chandlers Cross and Belsize before a longer section to go towards Kings Langley and climb up Hyde Lane to Bedmond, which is our main hill challenge and a favourite country lane to climb as it is a quiet, scenic cut through to Bedmond. From Bedmond Tin Church, we take the maze of lanes towards St. Albans emerging on the outskirts of Verulamium Park. Then we'll take you on to the Street Cafe, which may be a new one for you but we think it's worth discovering! :) After coffee and homemade cake or a light lunch, we'll return back to the cycle hub via Bedmond and Abbots Langley.

Please consider the weather and wear clothing to suit the conditions, and also a hi-vis top and gloves are recommended. Please bring lights for you bike and two spare inner tubes - as changing an inner tube is faster than getting out the rubber glue if punctures happen. The Ride Leaders can help if anyone in the group has a puncture on the day. Leavesden Cycle Hub sell inner tubes from £4 new, or recycled ones for 50p patched, £1 with no patches, 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 to the correct pressure.

We are Not-For-Profit, do free bike assessments and should your bike need a tune up or a full service, we'll give you an honest price.

We look forward to riding with you. :)
