Please bring spare inner tube, bike levers and a pump but don't worry if you don't have one. A lock would be advisable and it is essential that you bring your own PPE. Mask, hand gel/wipes and tissues. First aid consumables will be provided by the leader but you must self medicate if it is safe to do so.
