Leaving from Leavesden Cycle Hub this challenging route takes us to the climb at Bison Hill and returns to Leavesden Country Park via Redbourn.

The ride heads out through Bedmond towards Hemel Hempstead and then to Gaddesden Row and Whipsnade, to go up to Dunstable Downs and round to climb Bison Hill and head back through Gaddesden Row to Redbourn.

This is a 'pace of the group' ride; we will simply ride at a pace everyone in the group is comfortable with and expect the pace average to be around 10-11 mph, depending on the group.

Please check the weather forecast and wear appropriate clothing for the conditions. If you have a small rucksack so you can take layers off or put on as needed. Also bring some money for our stopping point if you would like to buy a drink, snack or light lunch.

Please bring a spare inner tube as this makes it easier to fix a puncture if it happens, rather than getting out the rubber glue. If you don't have a spare inner tube, Leavesden Cycle Hub sell them for £4 brand new, or second hand ones for £1 (no patches) & 50p (patched).

Please make sure your bike is in good working order before the ride, especially that the tyres are pumped up and the brakes work! Leavesden Cycle Hub can check over your bike and we can pump up your tyres for you if you come in good time before the ride. If your bike might need a little more TLC or hasn't been ridden for a while, you can always bring it in for a free assessment; we're Not-For-Profit and promise to give you an honest assessment and price if your bike needs fixing, fine tuning or a full service...
