Sky Ride is by far the greatest excuse to have fun on your bike! Right across the summer, Sky and British Cycling are providing a host of leisure cycling opportunities for beginners, kids, families and the most confident riders.

Sky Ride cycling events are perfect for people of all ages who want to get healthier, fitter and happier. And it’s good for the environment. If you’re looking for a new challenge, want to meet other riders or just a family day out with a difference, Sky Ride is for you.
