What to Bring?
The main things to bring are a bike, a sense of humour and lots of enthusiasm. But there are obviously a few other things you might want to bring along to make the whole experience even more enjoyable. Here are some suggestions:
- Bike helmet - strongly recommended for everyone
- A bike lock
- A puncture repair kit, spare tubes and bike pump - just in case
- Snacks and a water bottle, to keep those energy levels up
- A packed lunch, or money if you're not that organised
- A camera
- Your mobile phone, and hands free kit
- Suncream and sunglasses if you're feeling optimistic
- Waterproofs, if you're feeling less optimistic
- A small rucksack to carry everything
Please leave your ipod at home, you'll need to be able to hear the instructions of your ride leader and chat with fellow riders!
