Sky Ride Local, the popular programme of friendly community-led cycle rides, is coming to St Albans District starting on Sunday July 15.  The bike rides will take place every Sunday until mid-October.

With British Cycling-trained Ride Leaders on hand to offer encouragement and support, it's a great way to get out and explore local areas.

Registration is free and open now for rides already taking place in St Albans, Watford and Dacorum districts. More rides are being added all the time, so families, friends and groups can check out the dates and details of rides taking place.

Rides vary in levels, from beginners to experienced cyclists, so everyone can pick a level to suit their skills and enjoyment.  This year there are new ride levels to excite and challenge, including some tougher rides and new off-road rides at all levels. There are great gifts for children available too.

St Albans City and District Council works with Hertfordshire County Council under its BIG HERTS BIG IDEAS initiative to deliver Sky Ride Local rides.  Sky Ride Local is provided by British Cycling and Sky.
