Right on your doorstep, this entirely traffic-free, off-road 'Steady' route, allows you to weave around Whippendell Woods and provides an introduction to off-road mountain bike riding - with some steep inclines and downhills that challenge some basic off-road skills of balance, gear-changing & braking control. : ) It will be a laid back, relaxed and friendly ride, children and teens are welcome, and if you need to walk up the hills - that's totally fine by us - we're just happy you want to come & give mountain biking a go! : )
This is one of our 'Special Permission Rides', together with the 'Olympiads' Ride & the 'Cassiobury Park Special', where Watford Borough Council has granted Watford Cycle Hub special permission to lead rides on some paths normally reserved for walkers only. We have a limited number of times a year where we can do this, so these rides are doubly special. We will respect this Special Permission by being considerate to other Cassiobury Park & Whippendell Wood users and thank Watford Borough Council for granting us this special access. :)
Georgia Sear & Tom Barber are your dynamic duo for this Easter Sunday Ride. :)
Please check your bike is in good working order before the ride - especially that your brakes are working & your tyres are pumped.
Please also bring a spare inner tube with you. Changing an inner tube is faster than getting out the rubber glue, should anyone suffer a puncture on the day & our Ride Leader team are happy to help fix it should you need it. :)
Should your bike be in need of a bit more TLC, as a Not-For-Profit, Community Enterprise, we do free bike assessments and will offer you an honest price for fixing, fine tuning or servicing your bike. :)
