Meet the Ride Leaders

  • Mehmet Mulla
  • Gregory Trahar Now in my second year as a Sky Ride Leader. Its really satisfying to complete a Skyride where participants have clearly enjoyed themselves, whatever their age.
    Its also one of life's pleasures to be out in the country lanes cycling, with the sun on your back!
  • Joe Adolphe This is now my 3rd year as a SKY ride leader. I'm a keen cyclist who enjoys passing this pleasure to others. I'm happy leading all levels, regardless if it's 'ride strong' or 'ride easy', and always try to make sure that all who take part have had an enjoyable time.....especially if there is a 'cake stop'!
