Sky Ride Plymouth

Sky Ride is a free event that encourages people to get on a bike and have fun cycling on traffic free paths.

Last year Plymouth City Council, in partnership with British Cycling, hosted the cycling event which saw over 7,000 people taking part.

This year will see Sky Ride Plymouth taking place in the city’s largest park, Central Park on Sunday 12 May. The Park was originally created in 1928 as a park devoted to the improvement of the health of city residents. Wide boulevards go through the park's open meadows and woodlands, with fantastic views over the city towards Plymouth Sound and Cornwall.

The cycle ride opens from 10am and allows people to travel through the park at their own leisure and speed. Everyone’s invited - on bikes and trikes, adaptive bikes, skateboards, wheelchairs or mobility scooters.

People can join the ride anywhere along the route at any time during the event and British Cycling trained ride leaders will be on hand throughout the day to provide support and tips as well as leading rides around the park.

There will be lots going on throughout the day including bike rides, fun interactive workshops and free taster sessions in the Plymouth Life Centre.
