Who can join the community ride?

The aim of this ride is to promote the sport combined with a fun opportunity to cycle with friends and family (aged 16 and above). Whether cyclists have recently taken up the sport or if they are getting back to cycling after a break or would like to start training for the elite category race for the future – this community event is for everyone! This ride is a participation event with a target of completing the race and celebrating with family and friends in the Spinneys Village.
