Meet the Ride Leaders

  • Robert Maskell Robert Maskell Hello my name is Rob.
    I have been cycling since my teens.
    My main interest is cycle touring, I was a member of West Bromwich CTC for a number of years.
    I really enjoyed the Sunday morning club runs and the weekends away youth hosteling.
    Now my cycling consists of day rides to local beauty spots covering around 40 miles, and cycling off road exploring the tracks and trails of the Wyre Forest and Cannock Chase,and of course leading Sky rides.
    I like to do all of the maintenance and repairs to my bikes myself.
    I currently have two bikes, a GT that I use for off road and a Ridgeback that I use for road work.
    Well I hope to see you out on a local Sky ride soon
  • Kym-Le Blackwell Kym-Le Blackwell hi,
    previously i had been a mountain biker but now I'm enjoying the road. I've been participating in Sky rides for nearly 2 years and have recently become ride leader. I'm looking forward to meeting new and old sky riders and taking them round on some great routes and having some fun days out.
