Wear whatever you’re comfortable cycling in! We recommend:
Trainers or sturdy shoes
Layers (weather can change quickly)
Light waterproof jacket
Padded shorts (for longer rides)
Avoid wearing baggy trousers or long scarves, as these can get caught in the chain.
Some bridleways and byways may be a little overgrown, especially in spring and summer, so it’s worth being prepared for the occasional stinging nettle or scratchy hedge.
Helmets are available and strongly recommended — especially if you’re planning to pick up speed on downhill sections (always with care and consideration, of course!).
-
Helmets are not legally required for adults in the UK, but we strongly recommend wearing one. Helmets are provided free of charge with every booking.
