Ring Around Rhinefield

Sky Ride Local in Southampton

Get out and explore the countryside with the brand new rural off-road routes from Sky Ride Local.  Off-road Ride Well 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!

Join us on this beautiful and varied 11 mile route including open heath with roaming ponies and beautiful woodland.  This circular route takes in the beautiful paths of the New Forest and several fords before meeting at the midway point of Rhinefield Ornamental Drive.  This really is one of the perfect off-road routes and should not be missed!

• Phil Dollimore Hi everyone, and great to have you on the ride. During the week I am a college lecturer and got back into cycling about two years ago for the exercise. I'd forgotten just how good cycling is. I'm built for comfort for not speed, so don't worry about keeping up and I'm really keen to get people cycling, especially if they haven't done so for a while.
  Looking forward to seeing you on the ride.
  
  Phil
