Rides list (including draft rides)

This page is for use by members involved in planning rides, especially prospective ride leaders. It includes "draft" rides, which are rides which are still at the planning stage and which are likely to be changed before being published on the main rides list (or deleted). Our confirmed programme of rides can be found in our main rides list

Please read our Guidance for riders. Booking is required for some rides.

Units

You can search for rides by start point, day of week, by the stopping places it visits, by the ride type, or by the ride grading (e.g. "leisurely plus"). The buttons below the search box offer some specific search terms. Enter multiple search terms to find rides which match all of them.

You can also filter your search results by ride length, using expressions like <70 or >=30
