SheRides: Surrey Hills, Dorking

A women's social ride for intermediate to advanced riders, confident on red trails and above and happy to tackle jumps, drops (not everything is rollable) and steep tech; some trails have gaps with a go-around. Hosted by SheRides ambassador Claire.

Expect around 15-20km on a mix of flow and tech trails, with plenty of climbing to join them up. This is a more advanced ride than Claire's Swinley Forest rides: those comfortable on the Swinley downhill trails should feel right at home. Trail difficulty may change with the weather.

Meet Claire at Hurtwood car park 14, Radnor Lane, Shere, Dorking RH5 6NR (near the Youth Hostel), ready to ride at 10am; be on time (what3words: ///appeal.club.before). More on Surrey Hills mountain biking.

Facilities at and around the meet spot: free parking, toilets, café. A helmet is a must: SheRides will not ride with anyone who is not wearing one. Other protective gear is up to you (the ambassadors normally ride with knee/elbow pads and maybe gloves, depending on conditions). You'll need a bike that is trail suitable, safe and in working order. Bring plenty of snacks and water: once on the trails there's nowhere to stop. There's a café near the meeting point to hang out at after the ride.

The ride is free.

Sign up on the ride's Plus1 page (no app needed, Plus1 emails you a code). Contact the ambassadors by posting in the ride's comments on Plus1; if you're running late, there might not be signal at the meet point. Open to women 18+; you ride at your own risk.
