If the Tour has inspired you to dust off your bike and go for a ride British Cycling is running a series of free bike rides to get you pedalling this summer.
This summer is all about cycling, as the Tour de France came to York, and yellow fever has well and truly griped Yorkshire.
There are rides for everyone with three different levels on offer – you certainly don’t need to be a pro rider to take part! There’s something for everyone – whether you’re building your confidence or looking to stretch your legs on a cycling challenge.
What’s more, take part in two or more Sky Ride Local rides in July and you can grab yourself some great British Cycling gifts, including water bottles, neck Buffs and the chance to win a VIP cycling experience to the Tour of Britain this September.
The next rides coming up are:
Date: Sunday 3 August
Time: 10am
Start location: Energise Leisure Centre
Date: Wednesday 6 August
Time: 1pm
Start location: Rowntree Park
Date: Thursday 7 August
Time: 1pm
Start location: York Sport Cycle Circuit
So, if the return of the Tour de France to British soil has inspired you to get cycling, just visit http://www.goskyride.com/, find a ride near you and book your free place. It couldn’t be simpler to get on your bike and ride.
