A gentle, easy, totally road & traffic free route, which is a safe & exciting adventure for children & grown ups alike! : ) We will ride along the Ebury Way, and cross onto the canal towpath by the Cafe@Lock 81 (Batchworth Lock - Rickmansworth) after 3 miles. Here you can enjoy tea & cake or one of their award winning sausage sarnies! :)

After the break at the cafe, we will then all ride back along the canal towpath together, and re-join the Ebury Way to return to Watford Cycle Hub. All U16s need to be accompanied by a parent / guardian. Families are very welcome, as is anyone who wants a gentle, easy-going ride on a Sunday morning! :)

Please bring a spare inner tube in case of a puncture - as changing an inner tube is faster than getting out the rubber glue. The Ride Leaders will happily help if anyone in the group has a puncture on the day. Watford 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.

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 a Not-For-Profit, Community Enterprise and promise to give you an honest price if your bike needs fixing, fine tuning or a full service. :)
