What to Expect:
Join us for Ceri’s evening birthday ride 🥳 (and yes, there will be cake 🎂)
A 10 mile(ish) trail ride over blue and reds, typical trail centre so not too difficult and everything is rollable.
It’s a super loose structure; we won’t be rushing to get done, we won’t be pushing to tick off features, and we won’t be forcing anyone to ride anything they aren’t comfortable with- the aim is to have fun and ride bikes!
No pressure, just good times!

Where to Meet Us:
Ceri will be waiting in the spot listed below, ready to ride at 18:00. Please arrive with plenty of time to get ready as we’re not going to hang around too long.
You can contact our ambassadors via the event page on our facebook group (link at the top of this page). If you are running late, please let them know.

What Should you Bring?:
Equipment
It’s super important to note that we will not ride with anyone who is not wearing a helmet!
Other than that, the protective gear that you bring is up to you- we normally ride with knee / elbow pads and maybe gloves, depending on the conditions. You’ll also need a bike that is trail suitable, safe and in working order so we can avoid repairs at the start of the day.
Food
There is a snack wagon but it may be closed in the evenings so please bring some snacks with you to keep you going and don’t forget your water! It’s also Ceri’s birthday so there will be cake!
What Will it Cost?
The ride itself is totally free, we won’t be charging you anything for our company.
The carpark is a paid carpark, and the prices (at the time of writing) are as follows:
£1.50 for 1 hour
£3 for up to 3 hours
£5 for all day
From what we’re aware of depending on where you park you can pay with either coins or card.
We will have the entire day to ride, but there is no pressure at all if you need to dip out at any point.
Important Info:
Photos:
Our ambassadors may take photos or videos during the ride to use on social media or in promotions. It’s a great way to show others what our rides are really like and help those who might be nervous feel more confident about joining next time.
If you'd prefer not to be included in any photos or videos, just let your ambassador know at the start of the ride — no problem at all!
Disclaimer:
This is NOT a guided ride and there will be no coaching, we’re simply meeting you at the trail head to make some friends, push each other as a group, and get women and girls on the trails. We do not accept any responsibility / liability for any accidents, and we will refuse to ride with anyone who arrives without the correct safety equipment or an unsafe bike. All riders must sign up in order to ride and in doing so you are agreeing to these terms. All riders must identify as a woman and be aged 18 or above.
