Next Spokes Ride

Sunday 3rd July 2022. Meet at 10:00 outside the Usher Hall, Lothian Rd.

Destination to be decided on Wednesday. Distance will be around 70km (42 miles). Lunch in a café.
 
Please check your bike before the ride, i.e. tyre pressure, chain and brakes. Bring some money for emergencies and café stops and/or post ride refreshments. Don't forget snacks to keep your energy levels up and a drink to consume en-route.
 
Don't forget to bring a small toolkit to fit your bike and a spare inner tube in case you get a puncture. It is much easier to replace the tube than to repair a tube, especially if you have a slow puncture.

We show the way, help with mechanical malfunctions, wait for the less speedy and try to ensure all have a wonderful time! Cycle carefully and considerately. You are entirely responsible for your own safety.

Children under 14, or not used to roads, may only come with an adult. Light showers won’t put us off, but persistent bad weather may mean cancellation.

It is recommended that you bring a spare (intact!!) inner tube and basic toolkit (tyre levers, multi tool puncture repair kit, pump).  It is also recommended that you carry out some basic maintenance on your bike the day before the ride. An example, please see this article for more information: Pre Ride Bike Maintenance
