Hope WMN Ride Out - Ard Rock

A Hope WMN Ride Out at Ard Rock! Come join us!

Date and time: Friday 25th July. 10am and 2pm

Location: Ard Rock festival, Reeth

At this years Ard Rock we will have 2 ride outs, a morning and an afternoon so hopefully depending on your other commitments you can can get to one! We aim to meet at the Hope stand in the Ard Rock event village around 10am with a view of setting off riding around 10.30pm for the morning ride out. The afternoon Ride out will meet from 2pm , wheels rolling by 2.30pm.

If you're local or not attending the Ard Rock festival you can still join this ride out.

We'll set off as one group and head out on some of the trails on the surrounding hills. The ride will not be overly technical or long, there may be a few hills here or there, but the pace will be leisurely, so don't worry about getting left behind! As a rough guide, we aim to be out riding for around 2 hours. ~15km 300m climbing at a grade equivalent to a trail centre red. E-bikes are welcome, as are hardtails and full suspension bikes.

Helmets are mandatory and you must provide them yourself.

Nature of Ride:

The ride will involve mostly off road mountain-bike riding with some sections of road. The ride will take place in an outdoor environment on natural and man-made trails. Riders should be aware that weather conditions may change as could the conditions of the trails. The ride will last roughly 2 hours requiring a medium level of physical exertion. The ride will be led and joined by a Hope Technology representatives. The purpose of the ride is to guide the groups around the trails and not to coach riders.

Cost £5

This year taking part in a Hope WMN ride will cost £5. This is to ensure we are suitably prepared and staffed for the number of attendees. You will receive a goody bag for attending the event, the £5 ticket fee will be donated to Swaledale Mountain Rescue.
