Join us for a relaxed ride from Chorlton to explore the scenic Cheshire countryside, co-hosted by Rainbow Riders and OutdoorLads.

Heading out past Wythenshawe and Manchester Airport, we will wind our way along the peaceful country roads near Mobberley and Ashley. 

After a café break to refuel, we’ll return via Hale, Altrincham, and the canal-side cycleways through Sale and Brooklands.

We'll encounter a few climbs, but nothing too serious — take them at your own pace, and we’ll always regroup. No one gets left behind.

With up to 40 miles on the cards, this ride is best suited to those who’ve done at least some cycling before and feel comfortable spending a few hours in the saddle at a steady, social pace.

Friendly, scenic, and chatty - a great way to get out on the bike and meet other LGBTQ+ riders.
