    Hands® Group Rides for the Summer Season 

    Join us in Green Space™ throughout summer ’25. Avoid the disappointment of missing The Next One® and plan savvy. New format too – hope you enjoy.

    Party pace, low mileage, and strictly no Lycra™ – Hands® local community group rides are all about taking it easy, having fun and making new friends; whilst enjoying the beautiful city and green spaces of Milton Keynes. It ain’t the Tour de France or X games so they’re open to, literally, everyone and anyone.

    We’ll be pedalling Redway™ for between 5-10 miles (don’t sweat – it’s chill) and ending at a (hopefully) sunny spot in either city or wilderness: Come for a party and Bring Your Own Beverages®, invite your friends or meet some neue ones. It doesn’t matter if you don’t know anyone – you will by the end of the ride.
