Go Ride
With some of our riders competing at Cyclopark today in the Mad March Hare races we had the chance to spend lots of time on some core skills for our newer riders. Mostly we rode one handed. These longer sessions that give kids the chance to really practise handling their bike are the ones that will make them into really good bike riders. They are loads of fun too!

Youth Ride
A few riders came out of hibernation today and we welcomed Ben onto his first Youth Ride. We started off on the playground with a quick re-cap on group riding etiquette before heading out towards Penshurst for one of our old favourite routes, taking in Hannah Hill (yes I remember when I used to have to wait for her on that one). We did however avoid Ellen's Potholes, by reversing the route and coming back up the concrete road from Penshurst. Well done everyone who made it, lovely to see you all out and enjoying the spring sunshine on your bikes.

| Great riding from Luke and Ben |

| Claire, Ellen, Izzy, Sophia, Calvin & Katy - looking happy and colourful. |
