Forge Dam; Cycling is Great!
Get back on your bike with support on a scenic cycle ride westward from central UoS campus. Build your confidence of city riding with Pedal Ready's experienced cycle instructors. This route leaves the Arts Tower and winds eastwards through the city. There’ll be time for a quick drink/ice cream at the Forge Dam Cafe. The ride then loops back to end at the Arts Tower. This ride is approximately seven miles and passes over a small hill, so a basic level of fitness will be required. The attached image of the outbound route is approximate and may change at the ride leader’s discretion.
Cycling is an inexpensive way to travel and its fitness benefits are life-changing.
University hybrid bikes are available to borrow for this event. Contact parking@sheffield.ac.uk prior to the ride to check the availability of a suitable bike/helmet. Riders are encouraged to dress sensibly and wear sunscreen if it's hot.
