Manchester – City Streets and Park Life – 5 Miler (Sky Ride Local)

Not cycled for a while and looking for an easy way to get back in the saddle? Fancy a fun way to get your friends or kids riding? Our Easygoing rides are great for building confidence for all abilities and ages along relaxed, mostly traffic-free routes. They’re up to six miles long, with a gentle pace of around six miles an hour.

This easy-going five mile ride is centred on the Chorlton and Sale Water Parks, using the park’s paths to good effect. As you ride, you can watch the sailing boats and water-fowl on the parks’ many lakes, plus you can stock-up on food and drink at the cafe in Sale Water Park. The loop is totally traffic-free, making it ideal for young families and novice riders. Road bikes are not advised due to mixed surfaces.

Additional Information: Helmets must be worn by all under 18’s regardless of ride level.
All ages are welcome. Those under the age of 5 must be in a BSI approved child seat, trailer or tag-a-long.

Please make sure your bike is in good working order, Ride Leaders are there to help but are not responsible for your bike. All rides leave at the time stated, you must arrive early Ride Leaders will not wait.

Places are limited so please book online.
