Green Week & Bike Week Family Fun Ride!

Join us on Sunday 9th June for our Green Week & Bike Week Family Fun Ride!

We’ll have a very gentle 3 mile family fun ride, for everyone from 5 to 95 – we’ll go at the speed of the slowest! More adventurous riders could add a ride down the Billy Trail.

It’s one of our events for Havant Green Week (Sat 8th – Sun 16th June) & Cycling UK Bike Week (Mon 10th – Sun 16th June)
And you can’t get much greener than a Green Week bike ride!

Free ice cream for the best blinged bike and the best young rider!

  • Start and finish at the Hayling Community Centre
  • Meet there at 10:30am, Sunday 9-June.
  • We’ll have a very quick bike check and safety briefing.
  • Then we’ll ride very gently on cycle paths and Hayling’s quieter roads to the beach near Chichester Avenue.
  • We’ll have a little rest there, maybe you’ll want to buy an ice cream.
  • Then we’ll ride along the beach tracks, and then to the top of the Billy Trail.
  • More adventurous riders could add their own ride down the Billy Trail.
  • We’ll finish back at the Community Centre in Hayling Park, with a chance to buy an ice cream, coffee, lunch or a picnic if you bring your own.
  • We’ve just discovered the café there is closed for refurbishment – we’ll find somewhere close, perhaps West Town Inn or Three Bean Café.
  • And you’ll be part of Hayling’s second ever CycleBus !

A few important conditions:

  • You ride at your own risk!
  • Under 16’s must bring a responsible adult.
  • Check your bikes first – see cyclehayling.org/checks.
  • E-bikes, e-cargo bikes and trailers welcome.
  • Expect a few rough surfaces.
  • We’ll try and help with bike problems, but we’ll be short on tools, spares and time.
  • We think helmets are a good idea, especially for kids, but it’s your choice.
  • Leave the ride the ride at any point – but please tell us!

Run jointly by Cycle Hayling and Portsmouth CTC (Cycle Touring Club).
