About this ride
Glow rides are a national initiative for everyone, especially women, to have the right to ride our streets at night with confidence. Today has been marked as Glow Ride Night. We want as many people, women especially, to participate. Please add as many lights as you can to your bike and to your body.
This is a ten mile steady ride from the Moredon Sporting Hub.
The route is on quieter traffic roads and cycle paths. It’s a pretty flat route with a couple of steady climbs. The majority of the route is lit by street lights, but with all our lights we will be able to light up the dark patches.
As this is a short ride there won’t be any official stops. The Sports Hub has a cafe, so you can buy refreshments before or after the ride.
As it is a night ride, then bike lights are essential, but as it is a glow ride then please add extra lights if you are able. Please bring a bottle with your favourite thirst quencher and snacks to keep you going. For all your rides we recommend that you bring a spare inner tube that is suitable for your bike, plus a pump. If your wheels are bolted on, then please bring a spanner that fits your bike’s wheel nuts. You should dress appropriately for the weather and consider bringing your mobile phone along with cash and a payment card. Some places only accept electronic payments these days.
We welcome anyone to join us and ride with us, whether this is your first time or someone who has participated on previous rides. We never leave anyone behind.
