Just email Ollie at PP (info@pedalprogression.com) directly or email shredders (bristolshredders@gmail.com). Bike and helmet hire is currently free thanks to our British Cycling funding. Woohoo! Please book ONE ticket but just say it's for 'family Wilson' (etc). Thanks. Invite your friends. Bring your neighbours. Everyone is welcome. You will need to be self sufficient for you and your kids. A well maintained bike, water, tools and spares are a good idea! You will be responsible for yourself and your children throughout the ride. Please make sure helmets fit and children have gloves. You should ride in a maximum ratio of 1 adult to 2 children. If they differ in age and pace dramatically then think about buddying up with another family or bring a spare grown up. Note - for Ashton Court rides, park in the 'golf cafe' car park and then meet on the grass by the miniature railway (not at the shop). For Leigh Woods rides, park in the main car park or North Road and congregate away from the cars opposite the jumps by the main carpark. . Look out for the shredders flag. All our rides are now 90 mins. There will be plenty of time to stop and poke sticks in puddles, climb trees and do cartwheels. Voluntary donation Hub rides are free. If you'd like to make a small donation to the club to help us get more ride leaders trained up (with British Cycling leader training and first aid) then please donate to our paypal account - bristolshredders@gmail.com. Thank you! We have 4 new ride leaders thanks to parents' ongoing support. It is hugely appreciated and means more kids shredding the trails :-) Information Source: Bristol Shredders | eventbrite
