Sky Ride Sun 9 Sep

This Sunday morning (9 ^th ) from 10am there will be a ‘Sky Ride’ cycling event in the Park. Sky Ride is a British Cycling initiative to encourage more people to ride bikes. Trained ride leaders and local volunteers will guide groups of riders and provide advice and help on cycling.

The attached map SkyRide Cassiobury Park Easy Ride Marshal Points shows the route taken. 60 participants have signed up and they will be split into a number of guided groups.

Friends of Cassiobury Park have strong reservations about any increase in cycling in the park and current bye-laws restrict cycling to marked paths. The Friends therefore agreed to the Skyride on the basis that it is a once-off event and is carefully marshalled – especially at choke points such as the rustic bridge. We also asked that it be held after the school summer holidays.
