Ride Bristol Ride Bristol is a charity set up to help look after the existing Bristol trails, build new trails an

Ride Bristol’s mission is to support and grow the incredible off-road cycling scene in Bristol, building, maintaining and fundraising for an extensive and varied local trail network for all. We’re working to grow a vibrant, respectful and diverse community of trail users. We’ll help people to get involved in the scene and give them opportunities to help it grow. We want to celebrate Bristol’s scene and provide information and resources to encourage people to enjoy the trails we love. We are a registered charity and volunteer community, supported by a generous network of organisations and individuals.

Celebrating 3 years of women’s rides with a great turn out on a drizzly Saturday morning at Pedal Progression followed by cake to raise money for Safe Link, Missing Link & Next Link ☀️ a local domestic abuse charity

We had two groups, one chill, one a little more spicy, and great vibes throughout, with 4 riders joining for the first time 👊

I had multiple mechanicals and the other riders really saved my morning, prompting me to buy a pump and some spare valves to be better prepared next time - and to be even more grateful for such a great gang of women 💕

BRISTOL TALK & TRAILS – TONIGHT
MTB & GRAVEL BIKES WELCOME!!!

A free to attend social group trail ride for men aged 18+

🗓️ Tuesday 29th September
⌚️Ready to ride for 7pm
📍Pedal Progression
🍺Pub location TBC

Come and join us for a (hopefully dry and warm) social, no drop, GROUP ride on another new route for TALK & TRAILS. With a welcoming and supportive environment, there will be:

A pre-ride ‘Check in’.
Starting at 7pm from Pedal Progression, we will have a brief introduction and ‘How are you? Out of 10? check-in’ (a simple question with the aim’s to help men consider how they feel).

Social Group Trail Ride & Post ride ‘Check out’
We will then ride a MTB/Gravel route as the light fades (until around 9pm), before a post ride ‘check out’ and finishing with a cold drink.

-——

Brining an open, welcoming and supportive atmosphere, TALK & TRAILS is perfect for solo riders, a group of friends, newcomers to the area, anyone really. It is a peer to peer talking group facilitated around mountain biking with no pressure, no judgement and hopefully no ‘offs’.

You will need good, charged MTB lights and basic spares. A working mountain bike and a helmet are essential and then whatever else you need to be safe on the trail, we would recommend a jacket (in case it gets chilly),

Parking: Ashton Court gates are locked at 8.15pm so we advise finding alternative options nearby.

The ride is free to attend, food is optional, but if you want a burger jump on our bio link and bag a ticket. Includes a donation to the trails too 🙏

We meet 1845 at Pedal Progression, ride for a couple of hours then head to the pub.

All welcome, we aim to keep it chilled and chatty, social pace and never leave anyone behind. Groups for almost all abilities.

You’ll need a jacket for the pub, your lights for the last few trails and anything else you and your bike need to be self sufficient.

See ya there 🫡
