Join us on Monday 20th March for a Hackney group beginner ride. This week we will be riding from Hackney Downs to Hackney City Farm which is a distance of 5 miles and will include a cafe stop. Participants need to be able to balance, pedal, steer and brake - the ride will go at a gentle, relaxed pace and aim to accommodate anyone who can ride a bike. It is particularly aimed at those who would like to build up confidence and stamina, have recently learnt to ride a bike or have returned to cycling after a long break. There are a limited number of bikes available to borrow or you can bring your own road-worthy bike. Whilst we always endeavour to ensure bikes are available, there may be circumstances in which we need to cancel a bike booked in the event of unforeseen mechanical issues. Rides start at Hackney Downs and the meeting point is by The Pavilion in the centre of the park. Please bring with you: -Water -Snacks -Money for cafe if you'd like to buy anything -Helmet (if you wish to wear one) -Bike lock and spare inner tubes (if on own bike) Riders participate in the ride at their own risk and accept that their safety is a matter of personal responsibility.
