Everton Park and Stanley Park Figure of 8

Sunday 29th June at 10.00am This is what time the ride will set off. It’s best to get to the starting point at least 15 minutes beforehand to avoid missing the start.

Starting Point & Postcode
Everton Park Sports Centre Great Homer St L5 5PH
Overall Duration On a long ride, it’s sometimes good to have a little break in the middle, or maybe a catch up at the beginning or end to keep it sociable. This means that the overall ride duration may be longer than the actual cycling time.
1 hours 45 mins  (1 hours 0 mins cycling)
Bike Type You probably don’t want to drag your road bike across bumpy trails. Maybe you want to make the most of the suspension on your mountain bike. This helps you match your ride to your bike.

Meet the Ride Leaders

  • Kevin Craney Kevin Craney Hi Guys.
    2014 will be my first year as a sky ride lead rider and i can't wait to get started.

    I'm Kev, I'm a keen cyclist and get out on my bike as often as I can. I recently started cycling again as a way to save money commuting to and from work. I've since been bitten by the cycling bug, and am almost addicted to cycling. I mostly ride a hybrid for work and fitness but have been on mountain bike treks and sometimes on a road bike.

    I love the freedom of going anywhere within reason and my fitness is getting better and better.

    I'm looking forward to doing many skyrides and meeting loads of new and interesting people.

    I look forward to seeing you there

  • Simon Reeve Simon Reeve Hiya, I am a keen cyclist who loves the thrills of MTB'ing, have ridden a fair few black runs in Wales and Scotland. Even though I ride an MTB I take part in many road cycling events in and around Manchester, the 100, Liverpool, Blackpool and Chester to name a few and also charity events I arrange with a group of cyclists in Wigan. Our last venture was to ride back to Wigan from Edinburgh, 40% of which was off road. I am looking to assist others in enjoying cycling, to help them gain the confidence in riding on and off the road and share our experiences, and leading rides is a great way to achieve this. Hope you enjoy the rides. Si
