Meet the Ride Leaders

  • Alan Sanders Alan Sanders I've been riding regularly for 20 years (and sporadically before that) and if I could then I would ride my bike every day. I commute to work every weekday and I ride my mountain bike as often as I can. Living in Milton Keynes we are blessed with a fantastic 'Redway' cycling network which links seamlessly with purpose built bridle ways and on out into the beautiful countryside that surrounds us and I feel that it is something in which we should all be proud of and encourage others to use as much as possible. Being a SkyRide Leader now gives me the chance to share my passion with others.
  • Robert McCaffrey Robert McCaffrey Keen recreational rider. Enjoy cycling and just being outdoors. As well as cycling i go canoeing, and enjoy running, windsurfing and backpacking. As well as sitting in the pub/cafe talking about them.
