What's on at Sky Ride

Sky Ride marketplace

Sky Rides are a great way to experience riding through the streets of your town and city – totally traffic-free. This year we’re rolling out a real festival atmosphere, with even more things to do at the event, both on and off the bike.

The Hub is the place to collect your Sky Ride Pass, pick up your Sky Ride bib, and find out about loads of other cycling events and opportunities taking place near you. Meet your local Ride Leaders and Breeze champions, and check out our interactive map of local rides.

Experts from Halfords will be on hand if your bike needs a quick check up before the ride. This is also where you’ll find our Bike Cafe – a perfect place to meet friends or relax with a coffee and a piece of cake.

Air Bag

Our brand new Tricks & Tunes area features the chance to try some extreme cycling (fancy jumping on your bike onto our giant air bag?), watch stunt demos from the amazing Voodoo Unicycles team, or chill out with music from our resident DJ. Coaches from British Cycling’s Go Ride programme will also be running skills sessions for under-16s – and there’s a chance to win a bike too.

At The Marketplace you’ll find loads of community organisations and clubs, plus local bike shops, retailers and places to get a bite to eat or drink.

Don’t forget that Halfords are offering everyone who registers for a Sky Ride event this year a free bike check (worth £14.99). And if you’re one of the first thousand people to register for an event, we’ll also have a rather special free gift waiting for you on the day. Register your free place and join us at a Sky Ride in 2014.
