✅ Top Tips for Your Guided Ride

1. Check your bike the night before — tyres, brakes, and gears. A quick M-check takes just 2 minutes!

2. Fuel up properly — eat a balanced meal 1–2 hours before the ride and bring a snack for longer routes.

3. Dress for the weather — layers are your best friend in the UK! A lightweight windproof jacket is a must.

4. Hydrate! Aim for at least 500ml of water per hour of riding.

5. Communicate with your group — use hand signals and call out hazards. Riding together is safer and more fun!
