Sky Ride Local in Middlesbrough

Get out and explore the countryside with the brand new rural off-road routes from Sky Ride Local.  Off-road Ride Steady is mostly traffic free rural bike riding for the family and novice cyclist.  There is barely a metre of tarmac in sight on these rides so come and enjoy the scrunch of gravel and the squelch of mud under your tyres with us!

Come join us on this scenic ride through Guisborough Forest.  This circular route takes in all the sights, sounds and smells of Guisborough Forest while riding on the fire roads throughout.  At just over 8 miles this is the perfect way to stretch your legs and explore the forest with your family, friends and mother nature!

• Chris Kirby Hi,
  As a kid I was always on a bike of some form. Growing up in Holland where cycling is very popular was great, as this gave me a love of the outdoors and especially cycling. I returned to the UK and found the standards very poor in relation to Holland so my cycling days became less and less. In the summer of 2010 I did the Middlesbrough Sky Ride and the bug was back. So much that 2 months later I did the 140 mile Coast to Coast bike ride in 2 days for a local Charity
  I am proud to become part of the Sky Ride programme and I hope to see a lot more people out enjoying the freedom cycling gives you.
