WATFORD CYCLE HUB: THE SECRET GARDEN

A gentle ride using cycle paths & quiet roads on the Cassiobury Estate & through Nascot Wood to the Secret Garden. This is a brilliant ride for anyone looking to gain confidence riding their bike on mainly quiet roads, to learn about some of the local cycle routes and find a lovely little-known place to retreat to - one of Watford's hidden gems that you'll want to return to.

We will stop at Cheslyn Gardens for you to enjoy the surroundings of the garden before heading back to Cassiobury Park. We can stop at the Rhubarb Café on the way back or go to the Tea Pavilion when we return to the park.

New riders and children are always welcome and for this route.

Please bring a spare inner tube in case of a puncture - as it's easier to change an inner tube than repair a puncture. Watford Cycle Hub sell inner tubes from £4.50 new 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 and wear clothing suitable for the weather conditions and perhaps a backpack so you can put on or take off layers as needed. Also bring some money for our cafe stop if you would like to buy a drink, snack or light lunch.

Watford 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. Watford Cycle Hub are 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. :)

We look forward to riding with you. :)
