This is a social ride, with a focus on having fun and riding together to have a chat as we go. Come and join us! Followed by a meet-up at Station South from 4pm with discounted drinks (no sign up required for social).
The Blue group runs rides that are unpaced but aim to cover moderate distances, mainly traffic free. Feel like a longer, speedier cycle? Check out the Pink ride. Fancy a shorter, more local cycle suitable for beginners and family? Head on over to the Yellow ride!
We’ll cycle east along the FallowField Loop (Floop) visiting the Moravian village in Fairfield then onto Clayton Vale and Ancoats via Ashton and Rochdale canal towpaths. We’ll then head back to Station South via Hulme, Alexandra Park and the Floop.

Additional information :
Please bring a helmet. These will be non-dropping rides, but please make sure you are comfortable with the distance. We expect to be out for around 3 hours so please bring food, water and adequate clothing.
If for any reason your circumstances change and you can no longer join us, please let us know or cancel your slot on EventBrite and we can give your space to someone else. The size of the groups are limited: if the ride is oversubscribed then priority will be given to those who have signed up. Thank you!
How we ride: Our goal is to be a friendly and inclusive cycle club. To achieve this aim we expect all riders to:
- Look out for each other
- Be friendly and supportive to all riders
- Be self-sufficient (e.g. bring appropriate spares and supplies)
